Description

ACHISON offers electrical risk assessment include arc flash containment, intelligent components, and personal safety features. Our products include safety features to help protect equipment and employees, monitor performance, and help reduce unplanned outages and downtime.

An arc flash risk assessment of the entire electrical distribution system was performed as per NFPA-70E-2018 regulations. Vinyl UV-resistant arc flash labels were provided and installed on all applicable electrical enclosures. The arc flash labels list detailed information such as the required work distance for each task, the arc flash incident energy exposure in cal/cm2, and the type of PPE that must be worn when working in the enclosure live and the identification of the enclosure with a specific name.
