Line-Side Arc Flash Isolation

Why Does Line-Side Arc Flash Isolation Matter?

Learn how arc flash isolation on the line side can make a difference when designing electrical systems.

Since the dawn of domesticated electricity, arc flashes have been a serious, yet preventable, safety risk. Although the risk remains, safety standards surrounding arc flash (e.g. OSHA, NFPA 70E) and arc flash prevention technologies have evolved dramatically.

In this session, we’ll explore one such advance in these technologies:  Arc flash isolation on the line side.
