SafetyQuestion 465 of 521
An arc-flash hazard warning label applied to equipment should list information such as:
a.The paint color of the enclosure
b.Only the equipment manufacturer's name
c.The phone number of the electric utility
d.Nominal system voltage, the arc flash boundary, and the available incident energy or the required level of PPE
Explanation
A useful arc-flash label conveys the nominal voltage, arc flash boundary, and either available incident energy or the required PPE so workers can select proper protection. Paint color, the manufacturer alone, or the utility's phone number do not tell a worker how to protect against the arc-flash hazard.
