In this session, we’ll look at improper wear of arc-rated and flame-resistant apparel, using videos of manikins in real arcs and flash fires to graphically depict the consequences of each mistake. (These videos will be made available to you for use as training aids.) Safety briefings tell us what not to do, but have never before shown us. In this session, you’ll see common mistakes such as untucked shirts, partially unbuttoned shirts, meltable base layers, flammable outerwear, flammable contaminants such as insect repellent and others. We’ll discuss major advances in comfort and style over the past two years, as well as emerging trends. You’ll leave with compelling new training aids and the most up-to-date information on AR/FR clothing.
