anyone kown of any place to get arc flash taining in new jersey or nyc area?
"Arc Flash training" is too broad of a topic, if someone answers yes to that question without asking you questions first I would be hesitant to use them.
What part of the industry are you in, are you an EC, an industrial plant, a testing company? A government facility?
What do you need arc flash training on? Doing the studies? Selecting and usining the right PPE? A specific task? (Like an operator that has to operate a specific breaker daily) Live work? Getting your company in compliance?
Do you want the training at your facility or do you want to go to a local seminar? How many people? What trades?
Do you already have the correct PPE? Train your people before you have the PPE and proedures in place and work will come to a screeching halt.
Do you already have EEWP's in place? Do you have an electrical safety program already? Can you provide it for review before the training occurs?
Answer these and I will post a few more questions and make a recomendation on where to get the training.
Your "Arc Flash training" can be anywhere from 2 hours to 80 Hours, I have developed and delivered hundreds of programs, very few were ever the same. This is all I did for the last 15 Years, dont do it anymore but I know all of the good programs out there and are aware of most of the "Wannabes".
