Arc Flash Hazards: An Underestimated Workplace Danger

Arc flash incidents are among the most dangerous electrical accidents in the workplace, capable of causing severe injuries and fatalities.

Extreme Heat

Arc flash events can reach temperatures of up to 35,000°F (19,400°C), hotter than the surface of the sun.

Temperature 35,000°F

Incident Energy

The energy released during an arc flash can cause severe burns even at a distance, measured in calories per square centimeter.

Severe burns at 1.2 cal/cm²

Blast Pressure

The explosion can create pressure waves exceeding 2,000 lbs/ft², throwing workers across rooms and causing severe trauma.

Pressure force 2,000+ lbs/ft²

Statistics

Arc flash incidents account for thousands of injuries and fatalities annually in electrical workplace accidents.

Annual incidents 30,000+
