Arc flash assessments
Arc flash assessments that reduce risk and keep workers safe
Our arc flash study calculates the incident energy at all serviceable equipment and labels it, so your crew knows the hazard before they open the panel.
What we deliver
The information your facility needs to work safely and stay compliant
A Lume Safety arc flash risk assessment per NFPA 70E delivers everything your EHS and operations teams need to protect workers, meet NFPA 70E requirements, and make informed decisions about your electrical infrastructure. A current assessment also satisfies NFPA 70B, which independently requires that single-line diagrams and arc flash studies be maintained and kept current.
Delivered reliably and on schedule. Every arc flash assessment includes:
-
Short-circuit analysis and protective device coordination -
Incident energy calculations
-
Hazard labeling on every panel
-
PPE guidance based on actual incident energy levels
-
Arc flash studies using IEEE 1584 methodology
-
Engineering recommendations to reduce incident energy where it exceeds acceptable limits
-
A complete hazard assessment report that your EHS and maintenance teams can use to quickly identify areas of concern

Scope & site review
Our engineers start with a conversation about your facility, equipment inventory and timeline.
On-site data collection
Experienced technicians gather the electrical system data needed for the study. Equipment stays running.
Engineering analysis & modeling
Licensed Professional Engineers will model the facility and complete the incident energy calculations using SKM software. Every piece of equipment is analyzed.
Delivery & implementation
You receive your report backed by Professional Engineer review, arc flash labels and PPE guidance. Our engineers walk your team through the findings and recommendations.
