NFPA 70E REQUIREMENTS FOR ELECTRICAL WORKER SAFETY: THE NEW POWERSIGHT METERS WITH BLUETOOTH AND CAT IV RATING ARE THE SAFEST CHOICES FOR ELECTRICAL TESTING
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
The choice of a testing tool such as a meter, power monitor, datalogger etc. must now take into account the NFPA 70E safety standards currently in force to protect electrical workers. When using test tools such as power monitors users are confronted with the following considerations:
1) Does the meter meet existing safety standards?
2) Does the meter meet my company’s or organization’s safety goals?
3) How well does the “user experience” with the meter enhance worker safety?
Summit Technology asserts that a CAT IV safety rating and Bluetooth wireless communication are entirely compatible with safety procedures that follow NFPA 70E. When buying a power monitor these features are essential selection criteria.
If you are familiar with NFPA 70E and need to select a meter that meets its safety objectives, the Specifications document below discusses the design features and the packaging of the PowerSight meters that address meter safety and enhance the user’s safety experience.
