This guide covers fire hazards from electrical distribution and utilization systems installed in industrial, residential, and public buildings/areas. This guide also describes how a practical fire hazard assessment can be established for electrical equipment containing insulating materials. The hazard assessment should be based on relevant fire or failure scenarios based on service experience and engineering analysis. The relationship between small-scale material tests and large-scale fire… read more hazard tests is discussed. read less
This standard provides guidance for the specification and performance of an arc-flash hazard analysis, in accordance with the process defined in IEEE Std 1584, IEEE Guide for Performing Arc-Flash Hazard Calculations. It provides the minimum scope and deliverables for an arc-flash study.
This standard provides guidance and checklists for the collection of required data for performing an arc-flash hazard calculation study in accordance with the process defined in IEEE 1584-2018 and IEEE 1584.1-2022 for systems operating at three-phase 50/60 Hz alternating current (AC) 1000 V and below. This standard does not include collection of data required for performing other system studies, such as a short-circuit study and overcurrent protective device coordination study. Results from… read more these system studies are required to conduct an arc-flash hazard calculation study. read less
