In many industrial jobs, workers are exposed to arcing risks. Not only power plant workers, electricians and related inspection and maintenance personnel, even in the non-electric field, they also need to be involved in the operation of various electrical equipment.


An arc lasting less than 1 second has a core temperature of 20,000°C! The arc may not only burn the equipment, cause leakage, but also easily cause burns and even explosions. And reliable arc protective clothing is an important line of defense to ensure personnel safety.

用电弧小实验告诉你

普通工装与

杜邦™ Nomex® Essential Arc 电弧工装的区别!


Before starting, cut two lengths of fabric from DuPont™ Nomex® Essential Arc Arc Tooling and Regular Tooling for experimentation.

Use a small arc generator to generate an arc (voltage 3-7V, current ≈ 2A), ignite two fabrics separately, and see what happens?


The fabric of DuPont™ Nomex® Essential Arc Arc Tooling self-extinguishes when it leaves the arc.

After the ordinary tooling is ignited, the fabric continues to burn, resulting in molten dripping.

This experiment demonstrates the excellent arc protection performance of DuPont™ Nomex® Essential Arc Arc Tooling. Nomex® arc-resistant fabrics not only provide the thermal insulation and flame retardancy of the trusted Nomex® brand, they also provide reliable protection for jobs at risk of arcing.


As a member of the Partnership for Electrical Safety, DuPont also works to ensure that the thousands of people who work on energized electrical equipment are properly equipped and protected from the hazards caused by arcing. matchmatch
