Electrical glove testing egt magid s in house electrical glove testing egt lab is one of the most sophisticated and automated in the industry.
Should any glove or sleeve be exposed to chemical contaminants or suspected of any other physical damage they should be retested per astm d120 14a requirements.
We not only supply electrical gloves ppe we inspect and test them too.
Jm test systems is fully accredited for testing high voltage rubber protective goods.
Again any item that fails the electrical test is rejected and immediately rendered unusable.
Electrical safety gloves are categorized by the level of voltage protection they provide and whether or not they are resistant to ozone.
Gloves sleeves and blankets then undergo an electrical test as specified by the class rating of the item and the astm and osha standards maximum 40kv a c.
The voltage breakdown is as follows.
Dival is your one stop shop for all of your arc flash electrical glove and ppe needs.
A complete record of the testing is documented on a test result sheet.
In addition to the daily inspection osha requires electrical safety equipment to be subjected to periodic electrical tests as specified in 29 cfr 1910 137 c 2 viii.
