Attended a continuing ed class on the changes in 2018 NFPA 70E recently.
Have been working on developing my own Excel worksheet on this topic, but have a question on what would seem a simple clarification.
If a building owner selects NEVER to allow energized work, is a Arc-Flash study required ?
I took away from the class that it was NOT, but another statement was the following....
In order to validate that no voltage exists, an electrician or maintenance worker is still required to SUIT UP based on available incident energy.
What is wrong here, besides my note taking ability.
