Safety Lock Out / Tag out

Federal Legislation requires that manufacturing equipment display safety lockout procedures identifying primary and secondary hazardous energies.

Arc Flash

The National Fire Protection Agency (NFPA) requires all facilities in North America to have Arc Flash Hazard Analysis surveys and documentation detailing the entire electrical power distribution system. A line drawing with NFPA 70E labels identifies Personal Protection Equipment (PPE) and energy magnitudes to be posted at all service points. The documentation also identifies upstream fault current levels and recommendations to reduce the level of energy with overcurrent protective devices that disable circuits sooner to reduce the category level at service points for the protection of personnel and equipment.

Steptron Technologies has the resources to provide this service at exceptional value through economy of scale when combined with Safety Lockout/Tagout surveys. Each service is inter-related and combined into one project, one timeline and one team of on-site surveyors.
