What Is an Arc Flash Study?

An arc flash study is an electrical system analysis used to identify potential arc flash hazards within energized electrical equipment.

The study calculates:

  • Incident energy levels
  • Arc flash boundaries

  • Equipment labeling requirements
  • Fault current calculations
  • Breaker and protective device coordination

Arc flash studies are commonly required to support:

  • NFPA 70E Compliance
  • OSHA Electrical Safety Programs
  • Insurance Requirements
  • Facility Safety Initiatives
  • Electrical Upgrades & Expansions
