Provide necessary product specifications and testing requirements for arc rated arc flash suits and multi-layer garments that are not adequately covered in ASTM F1506
arc flash suit:Arc rated:
The current specification for garments ASTM F1506 does not adequately cover flash suits and multi-layer garments used to protect workers during arc flash accidents. Combining with 1506 would be confusing and complicated. Sub committee agree that 1506 would predominantly cover single layer garments and this new one would cover quilted and multi0layer fabric garments.
The title and scope are in draft form and are under development within this ASTM Committee.
