Arc flash resistant equipment may be described as equipment made to withstand the impact of internal arcing fault by meeting the testing requirements of IEEE Guide C37.20.7-2007.

In the 1970s, an interest started in Europe in assessing electrical equipment under internal arcing, which lead to an IEC standard. This research spread to North America and was used as a foundation for the EEMAC G14-1 procedure. The development of the IEEE standard heavily relies on Annex AA of the IEC standard and adopts many of the refinements originated in EEMAC G14-1 procedure. IEC 62271 - 200 defines the requirements for factory assembled metal - enclosed switchgear and control gear for alternating currents at rated voltage above 1 kV and up to and including 52 kV. It includes indoor and outdoor assemblies and frequencies up to and including 60 Hz.

This course is intended for electrical engineers with a desire to learn more about arc flash resistant equipment. Presented details discuss IEEE and IEC equipment accessibility types, arc resistant ratings and testing procedures according to IEEE standards.
