Today’s Electrical Building Design Show looks at stickers for arc-flash labels. Arc-flash calculations are essential tasks for electrical engineers or contractors to undertake for their electrical systems. The output of these calculations is a sticker placed on the panel to inform workers in the field about the arc-flash danger for that piece of equipment.
Highlights explored in this episode include:
- The Role of Software: Design Master Electrical and ElectroBIM have always included short circuit calculations for fault analysis. Arc-flash calculations were added later due to customer demand.
- Key Considerations: These include the main arc-flash calculations, and the ability to output the required safety stickers.
- Standards and Label Requirements: There are two main standards that govern the requirements for arc-flash labels.
- And more…
The Bottom Line:
Understanding the intricacies of arc-flash labels and the software used to generate them is necessary to ensure safety in electrical engineering. At Design Master, our approach has always been to create straightforward, easy-to-use software like ElectroBIM that follows necessary standards without adding unnecessary complexity.
