Hazards and Safety Standards

nfpa 70e®

NFPA 70E®

NFPA 70E is meant to provide a practical, safe working area for employees relative to the hazards that arise from electricity use. This standard addresses electrical safety-related work practices, maintenance requirements and other administrative controls for workers whose job responsibilities involve interaction with energized electrical hazards that could result in injury or fatality due to shock, arc flash and arc blast. The majority of our fabrics provide NFPA 70E category 1 or 2 protection. Reach out to your regional market manager for any additional questions or resources related to 70E.
