Looking for recommendations of a glove rated for both ANSI Cut 6 (or 7) and Arc Flash Category 2. Our current cut resistant gloves were a mitigating factor in an arc flash incident. My concern is that people make mistakes and someone could simply forget to change gloves before taking a measurement in a live bucket (especially people who have been in the trade for too long :roll: )

I got mine from Grainger. They fit well and are comfortable. Opinions may vary as to whether or not they are fine for data collection but you're right, I wouldn't recommend them for live work.

They don't provide tested, listed or labeled shock protection that I know of.
