Post subject:  Trench coat vs Coveralls

Has anyone explored the option to use a trench coat instead of coveralls? Especially in a substation setting it would be easier to stock a couple of trench coats instead of various sizes of coveralls. I am not sure they are covered under OSHA either.

Thanks!
Heather

Not allowed without the pants or leggings underneath. Arcs dont just shoot straight out, they do unperdictable things.

Click on video library, click on "top 10" and view clip #7 , then watch clip #9.

Then tell us if you think a trenchcoat is adequate protection.
