Switchboards, motor control centres and distribution panels on African plants carry arc flash energy that can burn a worker standing a metre away, yet most sites treat live electrical work as an ordinary maintenance task. This course teaches how to calculate incident energy, mark approach boundaries and select rated protective clothing so that panel work is planned around real thermal risk. Practical examples use the panel ratings and fault levels found on typical industrial and commercial installations.
