Working on live electrical connections is very dangerous. Personnel working on such connections must take precautions to protect themselves from electric shocks and other hazards. The leading precautionary measures are appropriate personal protective equipment. In many electrical accidents, employees are harmed because the wrong type or dysfunctional protection equipment is chosen.
Electrical insulating gloves are an important protection equipment against electrical injuries and deaths. However, these gloves must have been tested for functionality and must be produced in accordance with international standards. Above all, the type of glove should be compatible with the work done by the staff. The voltage of electrical units carried by the personnel is also an important parameter in glove selection.
Electrical insulating gloves are classified in both IEC and ASTM standards according to the level of voltage protection they provide as follows:
Electrically insulated gloves or covers (ASTM F496, ASTM D120 and AS are used by our organization within the framework of hand protection equipment testing services.TM D1051) testing services are also provided.
