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.

Protective clothing with the EN IEC 61482-1-1 rating is tested for its ability to protect against the thermal hazards of an electric arc, measuring its arc rating (ELIM, ATPV, or EBT). This ensures the garment provides a specified level of protection against heat and potential burns from an electric arc flash.

Protective clothing with the EN 1149-5 rating is tested for its ability to dissipate electrostatic charges, preventing sparks. This protects you by reducing the risk of explosions in hazardous environments where flammable substances or gases are present.

Protective clothing, such as garments, gaiters, hoods, and overshoes, with the EN 11612 rating is tested for protection against heat and flame, including limited flame spread, convective, radiant, and contact heat, plus molten metal splashes. This rating helps you choose apparel that provides reliable safety from various thermal hazards, ensuring your protection in environments with such risks.

High-visibility clothing with the EN ISO 20471:2013 rating is tested for its ability to visually signal the wearer, including the color, reflectivity, and placement of materials, even after washing. This ensures you are clearly seen in low light or near moving vehicles, significantly enhancing your safety.

Test results

Protective clothing with the EN 61482-2 rating is tested for protection against the thermal hazards of an electric arc, such as intense heat and flames. This means the clothing helps prevent severe burns by limiting heat transfer during an arc flash incident, enhancing user safety.
