Arc Flash Burn Injury Claims

What Is a Flash Burn?

Arc flashes occur when there is a high-voltage difference across a gap between conductors, causing powerful currents travel through the air and release tremendous amounts of energy. Temperatures as high as 36,000 degrees Fahrenheit, which is hotter than the surface of the sun, have been recorded in arch flashes, destroying skin, melting metal, and potentially igniting clothing, leading to further burns. The pressure wave blast of these electrical catastrophes can also carry up to 1000 pounds of force, causing nearby individuals to be thrown about and possibly suffer hearing loss.

Arc flash burns can be caused by any of the following:

• Outdated or worn electrical equipment
• Unlocked electrical vaults and transformers
• Improper training of electrical workers
• Inadequate safety supervision
