Arc Flash, Coordination, & Electrical Safety
Electrical safety has become a hot topic in the industrial, utility, and commercial sectors. OSHA has implemented steep fines, many times on a per device basis, if appropriate labeling and electrical safety programs are not in place.
To save time and money on arc flash studies, DES has implemented a training and data gathering system where plant personnel can collect equipment data within your plant and transmit it back to our servers for review. There is zero cost to customers for software packages, and costs for collection services are minimized. We have found this is often times to be the most cost-effective solution for our clients, and also allows for a fluid updating of arc flash models after plant mods.
DES has also partnered with local electricians to provide turnkey electrical safety services when plant electricians are not available. All of our reports and studies are sealed, a requirement for insurance and government submittals.
Typical Deliverables Include:
- Walkdown of Facilities
- Unbiased Advice regarding any findings. We do not upsell upgrades or systems that are not required.
- Arc Flash Labeling
- Arc Flash Reports AC/DC (Sealed)
- System One Lines and As-Builts
- Turn Key Upgrades of System Concerns
