Corporate Switchgear Specialist, Stanion Wholesale Electric Co.
Among the many services Stanion Wholesale Electric offers, a distribution specialist is yet another one. Having worked in the electrical industry for 29 years, I have sold only Eaton Electrical products during that time, making my position a valuable part of Stanion’s service offering.
What is Arc Flash?
An arc flash is a sudden, explosive release of energy. Electric current leaves its intended path and travels through air from one conductor to another conductor (or to ground). The National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) defines an arc flash hazard as “a source of possible injury or damage to health associated with the release of energy caused by an electrical arc.”
