New Online Arc Flash Safety Quiz
I have just finished adding an online Arc Flash Safety Quiz to our Arc Flash web site. This is my first effort at creating an online quiz like this, so I've started with twelve questions to see how it goes. My plan is to add additional questions once I am sure everything is working fine.
I invite you to give this quiz a try. Please feel free to pass on any comments or suggestions you have. Or suggest additional questions you feel would be useful to have in the quiz. There is a link at the end of the quiz that will take you back to this post so you can add your comments here. I would appreciate any feedback.I created the software that runs the quiz and plan to use this software to provide other online safety quizzes. This also means I can modify the software to make improvements in how the quiz operates. So please let me know what you think.

Using Thermal Imaging For MCC Maintenance
An article in the August issue of SA Instrumentation & Control provides a detailed description of using thermal imaging for inspecting motor control centers. The introduction to the article states:"Thermal imaging can be used to evaluate the operating condition of the components within motor control centres (MCCs) by comparing the relative temperatures of components under load.
Thermal imagers can indicate the operating condition of the components within MCCs by comparing their relative temperatures under load."
The topics covered include:
- What To Check
- What To Look For
- Record Keeping
- What Represents A Red Alert?
- The Potential Cost Of Failure
- Follow-Up Actions

Donnie's Accident
I stumbled on this video, showing the effects of an arc flash accident, on YouTube today.This is an emotionally powerful video that shows how a workplace accident impacts more than the workplace.
