The Issue Page 2 | © Magid 80% of all electrically related accidents and fatalities involving “Qualified Workers” are caused by Arc blast/Arc flash Source: OSHA

Electric Arc Flash Incident Page 3 | © Magid

AR/FR Clothing is Needed Page 4 | © Magid Everyday apparel can ignite and burn if exposed to an ignition source such as a flame or electric arc. FR protective apparel is designed to resist clothing ignition and, in the event it does ignite, self-extinguish immediately upon removal from the thermal source.
