An Arc Flash is a dangerous electrical event that occurs when a high-voltage current passes through the air between conductors or from a conductor to the ground. This can happen due to equipment failure, dust, moisture, or accidental contact. The result is a sudden release of energy that can cause severe burns, injuries, or even fatalities. To protect workers, safety measures such as proper training, personal protective equipment (PPE), and regular maintenance of electrical systems are essential. Understanding the risks associated with Arc Flash helps ensure a safer working environment in industries that rely on electrical equipment, such as manufacturing and construction.
