Arc Flash Accident at STARArc Flash Accident at STARApril 14, 2006 at ~1020Building 1006A Mechanical LoftEngineer operates 480 V 400 amp disconnect switchArc flash injuries: • 1st degree burns to head, face, chest, and hands • 1st and 2nd degree burns to forearms

Switch panel destroyed


Accident SceneAccident Scene


SummarySummaryLarge facilities with complex hazardsPotential for organizational accidents with multiple causesESH performance approaching excellenceESH programs moving toward future oriented measures


Possible Causes for Arc FlashPossible Causes for Arc FlashSwitch failure• Pieces of switch mechanism falling across conductors

High transient-voltage arcing-ground-fault on ungrounded delta systemForeign object• Open conduit stub may be source of foreign object


Accident Prevention Corrective ActionsAccident Prevention Corrective ActionsReplace GE 400 amp switches with Cutler-Hammer 400 amp switches Add auto-circuit breaker to STAR to remotely remove energy from switches

• Switches can be operated de-energizedActivate/install ground-fault detection systems with remote monitoring and alarmsMeasure sub-stations to determine if they can be resistively grounded Determine breaker settings at sub-stations and change trip levels as appropriatePerform arc flash calculations and label switches and CBs


Injury Prevention Corrective ActionsInjury Prevention Corrective Actions

Hazard Cat 2 PPE or greater for 480 V CB & switch operationAssure that PPE is worn properly through improved human performance training program
