                                                     S A F E T I T U D E Arc Flash Boundary (AFB) Electrical related accidents are most severest one owing to its invincible and fatal-result characteristics. The extensive use of electricity almost everywhere as risk-escalating factor makes the things even worse. It is important to know that working on live low voltage (220V) installation is not alone dangerous but also working near live energized one is equally risky. Therefore, an understanding of Arc Flash Boundary becomes of prime importance. The following brief knowledge help you understand about AFB An energy exposure of 1.2 calories per centimeter squared (Cal/cm2) is the widely accepted incident energy value considered to be where the onset of a second-degree burn could occur. The AFB must be determined as part of an arc flash risk assessment and a requirement for arc flash labels. It can be calculated using an equation defined by IEEE 1584—IEEE Guide for Performing Arc Flash Haz
  S A F E T I T U D E P327: Safetyzpick! When someone performs the best, becomes wise or learn to improve? Many of us see many things around us daily and pass on our judgment based on the current frame. This is a fact that what we see anything in present context is a very small section of whole of the development that happened behind. This thought of mine came after seeing the performance of Avinash Sable (from India), the Silver Medal winner in 3000 mtrs steeplechase in CWG-2022. How it gained the prominence is historic in the sense that he broke the convention of podium sweep by Kenyan sprinters for many years. We hardly can imagine of his toil before now. Coming from a very simple background, he himself broke his national record many times in the past. I strongly believe that if you call it a success then how it is achieved is a matter of befitting case to learn about the ingredients of a success. Rest to find out by the
