Is your facility compliant and safe from Arc Flash Hazards? Prevent accidents and huge OSHA fines by using LEM Arc Flash labels.

Arc Flashes give off extreme heat (as much as 35,000⁰F), intense light and potential blast conditions from rapidly heated air pressure. These conditions can result in extreme burns and related injuries. This is where the proper safety signage is critical.

After a potential arc flash is identified, it should be properly marked with the appropriate warning label to create an “electrically safe work condition” (NFPA 70E, Standard for Electrical Safety in the Workplace). LEM arc flash labels clearly identify equipment and components for potential arc flash hazards. LEM arc flash labels are important for eliminating confusion and ensuring you have a safe and code compliant workplace. Each label utilizes the ANSI standard heading which incorporates a clear signal warning text on a brightly colored background. The heading is accompanied by a universal symbol and easy to read descriptive text, available in multi-lingual formats.

The new NEC standard, Article 110.16 Flash Protection states: “Switchboards, Power Boards, Control Panels and Motor Control Centers shall be field marked to warn of potential arc flash hazards.” Arc flash labels should be clearly visible to qualified persons before they examine service, adjust or perform maintenance on the equipment.

Dropped tools and accidental contact with electrical systems are common causes of arc flash injuries. Prevent accidents; mark your workplace with LEM arc flash labels to inform those working in potentially hazardous situations. The Bureau of Labor Statistics states that electrical burns, explosions and electrocution / electrical shock resulted in over 11,000 days away from work in 1994.

Mark for safety and eliminate the potential for disaster…use LEM Arc Flash Labels. LEM Arc Flash Labels are available in both stock and custom formats. Combine with LEM’s Lock-out / Tag-out products for the best in workplace safety.
