Standards and labels

• EN IEC 61482-1-2:2018

  Protective clothing with the EN IEC 61482-1-2:2018 rating is tested for its resistance to the thermal effects of an electric arc flash using a "box test" method. This ensures the garment provides a certified level of protection, significantly reducing the risk of burn injuries from unexpected electrical incidents.

  Test results

  Low-voltage Circuit Arc APC 1

  This garment protects you from the thermal hazards of a sudden electric arc flash. It is rated Arc Protection Class 1 (APC 1), tested to shield against a 4kA short circuit electric arc.

• EN IEC 61482-1-1:2019

  Protective clothing with the EN IEC 61482-1-1:2019 rating is tested for its ability to protect against the thermal hazards of an electric arc by determining its arc rating (ELIM, ATPV, or EBT). This ensures the clothing significantly reduces the risk of burn injury from an electrical arc flash, with the ELIM rating indicating a 0% burn probability for enhanced safety.

• CE Marking

  CE Marking is a label that shows a product meets certain safety and environmental standards set by the European Union. To get the CE Marking, a company must test and certify their product meets these standards. CE Marking is required for many products sold in the EU, including electronics, machinery, toys and medical devices. It helps ensure that products are safe for consumers and the environment, and allows for easy trade within the EU.

• PPE Category 3

  PPE stands for "personal protective equipment." PPE Category 3 refers to equipment that is complex and provide the highest level of protection such as powered respirators, SCBA, and full body suits. In Europe, PPE Category 3 must meet certain safety standards set by the European Union, which means that it must be designed and manufactured to protect the user without causing harm. Companies that make or sell PPE must prove that it meets these standards. They also must have a quality management system in place, have to be audited regularly by a notified body and have to have a technical documentation.
