FlashTrack™- Arc Flash Data Collection Software

Our Arc Flash training programs are designed to send compliant Qualified Workers back on the floor or back to the field quickly and safely so they can put their newfound knowledge to work.

According to the NFPA 70E, a “Qualified Person” is trained and knowledgeable of the construction and operation of the equipment or the specific work method and is trained to recognize the hazards present. Such persons shall also be familiar with precautionary techniques, personal protective equipment, insulating and shielding materials, and insulated tools and test equipment. A person can be considered qualified with specific standards and methods but still unqualified for others.

In addition, to be permitted to work within the limited approach of exposed energized conductors and circuit parts, the person shall be trained in all of the following:

• The skills and techniques are necessary to distinguish exposed live parts from other parts of electric equipment.
• The skills and techniques are necessary to determine the nominal voltage of exposed live parts.
• The minimum approach distances specified in this section correspond to the voltages to which the qualified employee will be exposed.
• The decision-making process is necessary to determine the degree and extent of the hazard and the personal protective equipment and job planning required to perform the task safely.

Our industry-leading training will provide the highest level of knowledge in the most cost-effective platform. Our ISHN Readers’ Choice Award-Winning NFPA 70E Arc Flash training (Electrical Safety) for Qualified Workers can be done in 2-hours and meets the requirements for OSHA & NFPA 70E.

Arc Flash / NFPA 70E retraining in safety-related work practices and applicable changes in this standard shall be performed at intervals not to exceed three years.

[Note that the “every three years” rule is the default. Employees must be retrained at least every three years. There are circumstances where retraining in electrical hazard safety is necessary, even if it hasn’t yet been three years since the last training occurred. ]

An employee shall receive additional training (or retraining) if any of the following conditions exist:

(1) The supervision or annual inspections indicate that the employee is not complying with the safety-related work practices.

(2) New technology, new types of equipment, or changes in procedures necessitate the use of safety-related work practices that are different from those the employee would usually use.

(3) The employee must employ safety-related practices that are generally not used during regular job duties.

If your employees’ actions indicate that they’re not clear on electrical safety, or if their duties have changed, and now they work with electrical equipment that they did not work with previously, they will need retraining.

If your electrical equipment has changed, or procedures for handling that equipment have changed, then the affected employees will need retraining.
