DESCRIPTION:Mitigating Arc Flash Energy is a challenge on medium voltage (M
 V) to low voltage (LV) substations. On the secondary side\, LV switchboard
 s or switchgear are exposed to amplified\, high levels of arc flash curren
 t directly from the MV-LV transformer. This creates major issues for maint
 enance that cannot be resolved by including an Energy Reduced Maintenance 
 Switch (ERMS)\, the typical solution for mitigating arc-flash per NEC 240.
 8 at the LV main breaker. The line-side of this breaker can easily have an
  arc flash incident energy above 40 calories/cm2 at the IEEE 1584 recommen
 ded 18 inch working distance in front of the switchboard. This high level 
 of arc flash risk would be referenced as PPE category Dangerous. This mean
 s no PPE (personal protective equipment) is safe. It can mean the whole sw
 itchboard cannot be maintained without a shutdown.\n\nCo-sponsored by: San
