Look for this free live
conference, scheduled for Thursday, May 8 at 10 a.m. Eastern and
Pacific:
Calculating Arc Flash Energy Levels by Benjamin Medich,
P.E.
This conference will detail how NFPA 70E, “Standard for
Electrical Safety in the Workplace,” and IEEE 1584, “Guide for
Performing Arc-Flash Hazard Calculations,” have varying — and
sometimes overlapping — requirements for the development of an
arc-flash analysis. It also will provide a survey of these methods,
along with the basics to allow an integrated approach to arc-flash
analysis, taking into account the requirements of both analysis
methods.
This conference is a must for electrical engineers and designers as
well
as plant/facility electrical maintenance personnel.
Coming soon:
"Understanding Electrical Safety and PPE Selection"
"Implementing an Arc-Flash Safety Compliance Program"
"Preparing an Arc-Flash Hazard Study"
Visit the many exhibitors in this virtual tradeshow and take a look
at the On-Demand Library, where you can view past online conferences
24/7/365.
