In addition to using the calculated methods for determining the arc flash energy and required personal protective equipment (PPE) described above, there is a third method of determining what type of protection to use when working on live equipment. This method is the direct application of Table 130.7(C)(9)(a) from NFPA 70E. This table is intended to be a conservative application of the principles of Annex D, without the need for performing a complete arc flash evaluation and study.
