What is Arc Blast ?

Arc Blast is the supersonic shockwave produced when the uncontrolled Arc vaporizes the metal conductors.

The massive energy released in the Arc fault rapidly vaporizes the metal conductors involved, blasting molten metal and expanding plasma inside of the ASSEMBLY with extraordinary force, which Damages the Assembly and throws metals pats, doors, this can be big damage for Asset Protection and Employee Protection.

    What is Electrical Insulating Materials ?

    Nonconducting material that provides electric isolation of two parts at different voltages.
    It must have an electrical resistivity and a dielectric strength sufficiently high for the given application.
    The secondary requirements relate to thermal and mechanical properties.

    When can Arc Flash occur ?

    Arc Flash occurs when insulation or isolation between electrified conductors is breached or can no longer withstand the applied voltage.

    What causes Arc Flash?

    Arc flash occurs when electrical current becomes uncontrolled, results in release of energy that ionizes air, releasing enormous heat, light, sound.
