As part of your full arc flash report, EPSCO provides you with recommendations and red flags that may impact your facility. While we don’t provide most of the services needed to resolve these red flags, one of EPSCO’s field engineers can provide you with guidance on local contractors.
| Device | Existing | Recommended | Recommendation |
|---|
| (800P) MAIN-PAINT PLANT | 68 cals/cm² | <8 cals/cm² | Must install upstream protective device to lower incident energy. |
| (801P) MAIN SERVICE PAINT | 68 cals/cm² | <8 cals/cm² | Unable to lower due to nuisance tripping with downstream device. |
| (819P) PANEL-DS-1 | 37 cals/cm² | <8 cals/cm² | Recommend installing integral trip unit with LTPU, LTD, STPU, STD, INST. |
| (802P) PANEL-DS3 | 19 cals/cm² | 1.6 cals/cm² | By lowering the feeder fuse from 600amp to 400amps, it will lower the incident energy level from 19 to 1.6 cals/cm². |
| BUS BAR-7 BUS PLUGS | 27 cals/cm² | <1.2 cals/cm² | By lowering the INST setting on the feeder breaker from 4 to 3 it will lower the incident energy from 27 cals/cm² to 0.41. |
