Protect people, improve electrical safety and make informed decisions with a professional ARC Flash Study from FANCO Industrial Solutions. Our experienced electrical engineers develop a detailed electrical network model and evaluate arc-flash hazards to support safer maintenance and operating practices.

WHAT IS AN ARC FLASH STUDY?

An Engineering-Based Electrical Safety Assessment

An ARC Flash Study is an electrical safety analysis used to determine the potential incident energy and arc-flash boundary associated with electrical equipment under defined operating and fault conditions. The study helps identify hazards, establish appropriate approach boundaries and support selection of suitable PPE and safety procedures.

WHY IT MATTERS

Understand the Risk Before People Are Exposed

An arc flash can release intense heat, light, pressure and molten metal in a very short time. A properly engineered study helps organizations understand the risk before personnel perform energized electrical work or maintenance.


Engineering-based assessment

FANCO evaluates the electrical distribution system through short-circuit, protective-device and arc-flash calculations, using a complete network model developed from actual site data.

ARC FLASH • FIELD SAFETY

Electrical Safety Starts With Engineering Visibility

A professional ARC Flash Study connects field conditions, electrical system data and engineering analysis to support safer maintenance and operating practices.

OUR ARC FLASH STUDY METHODOLOGY

From Site Data to Defensible Engineering Results

We follow a structured engineering workflow—from site data collection through ETAP modelling, calculations, reporting and practical safety recommendations.

01

Data Collection & Site Survey

Collect existing electrical documentation and verify field information, equipment ratings, operating conditions and system configuration.

02

Single Line Diagrams (SLDs)

Review available SLDs and update/validate the electrical distribution topology against the actual installation.

03

Equipment & Protection Details

Compile transformer, switchgear, MCC, MCCB, ACB, fuse, relay, cable and other protective-device data, including ratings and settings where applicable.

04

Loads & Motors

Capture motorised loads, major electrical loads, operating states and relevant motor/feeder information required for the system model.

05

Power Sources

Assess utility/WAPDA supply, solar PV generation, standby/emergency generators (gensets), transformers and other sources contributing to the electrical network.

06

ETAP Network Model

Develop a complete electrical network model in ETAP and configure sources, buses, transformers, cables, loads and protective devices using verified project data.

07

Engineering Analysis

Perform the required short-circuit, protective-device coordination and arc-flash calculations for applicable operating scenarios.

08

Global-Standard Reporting

Prepare a professional report with study assumptions, system model, calculation results, incident-energy information, boundaries, findings and recommendations for safer maintenance.

From raw electrical data to a defensible engineering study: FANCO builds and validates the electrical system model in ETAP so the final ARC Flash assessment reflects the actual configuration and available system information as closely as practical.
