Accurate & Complete Electrical Safety Services

There are five steps in our arc flash process: Data Collection Computer Modeling Review Labeling Reports Data collection. A technician or engineer will gather data from the client’s facility/site in a format to be entered into a computer program and modeled. This information requires access to electrical equipment, although it does not mean the equipment needs to be shut down or powered off. Our trained, responsible, and qualified electricians can gather this data with no interruptions to operations. Computer Modeling. Utilizing electrical engineering software(s) such as SKM PowerTools, engineers model one-line drawings and run reports with the most current calculations, all by using the data collected by the technicians. Review. Making sure that everything is accurate is of the utmost importance when performing an arc flash study, as safety is paramount. A reputable provider will include the client in their review process to verify the integrity of the data and confirm that the electrical model is correct. Labeling. Labels are the part that ties everything together. Without labels, you effectively do not have an arc flash study completed. The labels provide pertinent information on the hazard and must be followed closely to maintain the safest work environment. Reports. At the end of it all, the client will receive a final report containing various information generated from the study, as well as one-line drawings signed by an engineer. These drawings go hand-in-hand with the labels in capturing and displaying necessary data about the study.

For a 300,000 sq ft facility with a moderate density and equipment count, our arc flash studies from start to finish typically take 3-6 months. Multiple variables are taken into account with a speed of a job. Bigger facilities could have a lower equipment density and count, speeding up the processes. In the same way, smaller facilities could have a higher equipment density and require more data collection time. Both the client and the arc flash provider are to work together to move through the process with speed, but also with a quality final product.
