   Flame resistant apparel for the electrical Industry is a  requirement that is necessary whether there are regulations provided by such organizations such as OSHA and NFPA or not. This is due to the fact that the risk of an electric arc occurring on the work site has increased due to the requirement of more power sources for both Industrial and personal use.

    Every year workers are injured and/or fatally killed through electric arcs or electric flash fires. Flame resistant apparel will provide the protection that could mean the difference between a minor burn and a life threatening injury. Where an electric arc flash is concerned a few seconds of protection may not seem like a lot but it can make the difference between life and death.

    Nomex flash fire and electric arc apparel made from Dupont has been protecting workers with electrical flame protection for over 30 years. The characteristics of the Nomex fibers make it inherently flame resistant. This means that the fiber will help protect from exposure to electric arcs and flash fires and the garments can not be degraded through laundering.

    Nomex garments have been tested and proven in labratory and field tests along with real life experiences dealing with electrical arc flashes. Dupont Nomex provides electrical workers with the following benefits when facing a situation dealing with electrical arcs and flash fires:

* Is inherently flame resistant
* Does not melt and drip
* Flame resistant properties can not be laundered or worn out
* Minimizes the break open point and maintains a barrier between the worker and the flash arc
* Provides a protective char when exposed to an arc flame
