DuPont™ Arc-Guide: The European Approach to Electrical Arc Risk Assessment

Electrical arc flash is one of the deadliest – and least understood – hazard of electricity. The DuPont™ Arc-Guide can help you understand, evaluate and reduce the severities and consequences of electrical arc.

Although legislation requires companies to perform risk assessments for all work activities, electrical arc is often overlooked. The reason is that although an electric arc is a rare but extremely dangerous hazard few people understand how to assess and manage it effectively.

Now DuPont has developed a European approach to electrical arc risk assessment: the DuPont™ Arc-Guide. Created by a team of experts including DuPont Engineering Technology, DuPont Personal Protection, and external independent experts in electrical arc, this guide follows a “4P” approach for risk assesment: Predict, Prevent, Protect and Publish.
