IEEE Std 1584-2018 – A Journey in Understanding the Anatomy of an Arc

Over the course of more than 10 years beginning in the year 2004, a multi-million-dollar research project sponsored by the IEEE and the NFPA involved a series of over 1,800 arc flash tests performed in high-voltages laboratories. In this webinar, Dr. Wei-Jen Lee, who led the research project, will outline the significant improvements in the updated IEEE Standard, explaining the data acquisition systems and instruments used to measure heat energy, sound, blast pressure and light and how test methods changed over the course of testing in developing what is now a globally accepted model in commercial and industrial power systems analysis to quantify arc flash hazards.
