FREE Arc Flash Label Information Guide
Beaverton, OR - October 19, 2005
- Arc flash is a serious safety hazard. Ensuring that everyone
who enters your facility understands the information on an
arc flash label is an important component of an arc flash
safety program. The new Arc Flash Label Information Guide
from Graphic Products is a useful tool that helps accomplish
this.
 A
key safety factor in any facility in which energized equipment
exists, is that everyone be able to understand and respond
appropriately to the information on an arc flash warning label.
This not only includes employees, but also vendors, contractors,
inspectors, visitors and even supervisory and management staff.
The new Arc Flash Label Information Guide from Graphic Products
provides a method for quickly getting people up to speed on
understanding the information on arc flash labels. It provides
basic information about approach and protection boundaries,
personal protective equipment (PPE), and how various energy
hazards are determined. The objective is to provide a quick
reference, that is easy to read, and which provides sufficient
understanding of arc flash labels such that unqualified people
will follow the boundary restrictions given on an arc flash
warning label--and understand why they must obey those restrictions.
The Graphic Products’ Arc Flash Label
Information Guide has been written to deliver the needed information
in a concise manner. The average person will take about two
minutes to read this one page guide. This guide is not intended
to be used as arc flash training. Its purpose is to sufficiently
inform those who are not involved with working on energized
equipment, such that they will understand the importance of
arc flash labels and maintain the required minimum boundary
distances. The guide is particularly useful for use with
vendors, contractors, inspectors and visitors who should be
familiar with arc flash labels before they are allowed unescorted
access to a facility.
The Arc Flash Label Information Guide is
available FREE from Graphic Products. A copy may be requested
online by going to their web site at:

To request a copy by phone, call Graphic
Products at 1-800-788-5572.
