2 Are You in Compliance? Recent changes by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) improve safety standards related to electrical arc flash for power generation, distribution, and transmission equipment. The updated standards create a unified and up-to-date set of requirements to help employers more effectively establish work practices to protect both employees and contractors. Employers that operate or maintain electric power generation, transmission, or distribution lines or equipment must follow OSHA (Scan the QR code at right to read the regulation). This rule applies to utilities and industrial workplaces, if certain types of equipment are present. Key milestones that need to be met: January 1, 2015: Incident Heat Energy Estimation -- Companies are required to perform a complete hazard assessment. The employer must make reasonable estimates of incident energy. April 1, 2015: Protective Equipment and Fire Resistant (FR) Clothing - Utilizing the incident energy study, employers shall provide the appropriate FR clothing and proper personal protection equipment. Take the preventative measures to protect your employees, your contractors, and assets to ensure your company is in compliance with the amended The process starts with performing incident energy studies on any new equipment or any equipment that has an incident energy study that is five years or older.

Work clothing or arc flash suits that are contaminated, or damaged to the extent that their protective qualities are impaired, shall not be used. Protective items that become contaminated with grease, oil, or flammable liquids or combustible materials shall not be used. See specification ASTM F1449 Standard Guide for Care and Maintenance of Flame Resistant Clothing for full recommendations on laundering and repair of FR clothing. STORAGE: Arc-rated apparel shall be stored in a manner that prevents physical damage; damage from moisture, dust, or other deteriorating agents; or contamination from flammable or combustible materials. CLEANING & REPAIR: When arc rated clothing is cleaned, manufacturer s instructions shall be followed to avoid loss of protection. When arc-rated clothing is repaired, the same arc-rated materials used to manufacture the arc-rated clothing shall be used to provide repairs. When trim, name tags, or logos, or any combination thereof, are affixed to arc-rated clothing, guidance in ASTM F 1506, Standard Performance Specification for Textile Material for Wearing Apparel for Use by Electrical Workers Exposed to Momentary Electric Arc and Related Thermal Hazards, shall be followed. LAUNDRY: When laundering, clean garment thoroughly. Dry clean or Machine wash to 140, and up to 165 on cotton blends. Tumble dry Medium. No chlorine bleach or hydrogen peroxide either separately or in the detergents. No softeners or starch. For more detail on laundering recommendations, contact manufacturer. Failure to launder properly could affect the flame resistance of the garments. FACE SHIELD CARE: Face shields should be inspected for physical integrity and should be free of cracks or excessive wear. Face shields should be kept clean for best vision. Clean with water and mild soap and dried with soft cloth. Make sure no contaminating residue is left on the shield. Store face shield in a shield stuff bag to protect it from dust and scratch.
