Capacitor Hazards Evaluation - Article 360 and Appendix R of NFPA 70E 2021
Comply with the latest safety requirements related to stored capacitor energy hazards such as shock, thermal and arc-flash blast! The capacitor stored energy hazard evaluation is fully integrated in ETAP 20.5 and allows for safety warning labels for capacitor hazards. Features include:
- Evaluation of Capacitor Stored Energy Shock, Thermal and Arc Blast Hazards:
- Evaluation capacitor discharge time against different discharge standards such as:
- NEC 2020
- CSA C22.1-18
- IEC 60831-2014
- IEEE-18-2012
- NFPA70E-2021
- Stored Energy Arc-Flash Hazard Calculation
- Hearing Protection Boundary
- Lung Protection/Collapse Boundary
- Evaluation capacitor discharge time against different discharge standards such as:
- Consider the effect of capacitor stored energy (connected or disconnected from power supply)
