THE LATEST ON EN 61482-2:2020 & ELIM

Read or latest blog post for everything you need to know on the new arc flash standard coming into effect in 2025.

ARC FLASH BLOG

Safety Standards - EN ISO 11611

EN ISO 11611
Protective clothing for use in welding and allied processes.

This standard specifies PPE Clothing used in welding work or allied processes where you have the risk of spatter (small splashes of molten metal), short contact with flame, radiant heat from the arc, and risk of electric shock by short-term, accidental contact with live electrical conductors (at voltages up to approximately 100 V DC in normal conditions of welding).

The standard is divided in two different classes with different levels of protection. The welding function of the fabric is tested with 15 drops (class 1) or 25 drops (class 2) of molten metal. The design of the garment is also a parameter in the CE marking of welding garments.
