Electricity is an integral part of the modern world, and sometimes it is easy to forget just how dangerous it can be.

The NCRB report since 2012 to 2015 reveals that Fire accidents due to just Electrical Short Circuits itself accounts for

6%-13% of the total Fire accidents. In most states in India the property lost due to fire & electrical accidents are worth

anywhere from 25 - 50 crores each year. Electrical installations often fail or malfunction because of inappropriate

practices and a poor knowledge of safety and risk mitigation measures, and therefore fire and electrical hazards

continues to be one of the foremost causes for massive loses and fatalities every year. With electricity becoming an

indispensable part of our life managing it is inevitable.

CORE CONCEPTS IN ELECTRICAL

SAFETY AND STATUTORY

REQUIREMENTS

Professionals who work around electricity

need up-to-date & accurate information

to be effective

OBJECTIVES

Decoding statutory requirements & regulations

in India leading to

- Insights for Risk mitigation using HAC concepts

- Selection for electrical equipment based upon the

nature of operations , gas groups & temperature

- Techniques behind a HAC survey

- Type of hazardous area equipment

- Maintaining an Ex register , Ex equipment inspection

- Flame proof enclosure

- Certification bodies

- Guidelines and case studies

HAZARDOUS AREA CLASSIFICATION

In short – all industries which handle flammable

materials need Hazardous Area Classification and

proper selection of electrical equipment. A plant

which handles flammable materials is divided into

Zones based upon the frequency of the appearance

and the duration of an explosive gas atmosphere. To

help select the right electrical equipment the

knowledge of the zone is essential. This knowledge is

essential to prevent explosions and fires which could

lead to catastrophic losses.

OBJECTIVES

At the end of the course the learner will be able to

understand the classification into HAC Zones ,

understand the different types of electrical equipment,

apply the principles for electrical equipment selection

in hazardous areas and solve the conflicts related to

installed equipment and the requirement in existing

facilities.

ARC FLASH STUDY

Arc flash is one of the common dangers while working

with electricity. Around three decades ago, Ralph Lee

published his paper on a serious threat called Arc Blast

Hazards.An arc flash is the light and heat produced

from an electric arc, supplied with sufficient electrical

energy, to cause substantial damage,harm, fire, or injury.

OBJECTIVES

The objective of the course is to orient the learner about

the hazards associated with an arc flash. The course will

direct the learner on the techniques that can be

adopted to mitigate or elimate these hazards. How to

conduct an arc flash study, what are the possible

outcomes and how to analyse the results and take

safety measures will be the focus of the program.

- Why ARC flash study should be done?

- Regulations for ARC flash

- What is ARC flash Boundaries?

- Factors which determines Arc flash boundaries?

- Arc Flash Hazard Analysis – Methodology IEEE 1584

- Steps involved in conducting ARC flash Study?

- Software tools available

- Hazard Risk category levels

- PPE for ARC flash protection

- Recent developments in Arc flash protection

- Concept of Lightning Protection

- Standards & Guidelines on Lightning protection

- Structural protection: Basic concepts, Methods

of LPS, Designing of LPS for

different structures

- Lightning protection for Hazardous Areas,

- Lightning protection for Tank farm areas.

- Lightning protection for commercial and high

rise establishments

- Introduction to surge protection systems

LIGHTNING PROTECTION AND EARTHING

Lightning strikes on a plant or building can be extremely

disastrous., It is extremely harmful to both life and property

and therefore its impact should be limited. Fortunately there

are techniques and methods to safe guard against threats

from Lightning.

OBJECTIVES

The objective of the course is to orient the learner about

the hazards associated with a lightning strike on different

kind of establishments and operations. The course will

direct the learner on the techniques that can be adopted

to mitigate or elimate these hazards. The learner will also

understand the design behind a lightning protection

system.
