The Volt Safety ARC-KIT4-S-VT-3XL is a complete arc flash personal protective equipment kit with a published arc rating of 43 cal/cm2, supplied in size 3XL. The ARC-KIT4-S-VT-3XL contains a jacket, bib-trousers, arc gloves, a vented hood with its own bag, a hard hat and an accessory pack, packed into a waterproof PPE bag. Garments are manufactured by Sherwood from DuPont Nomex fabric, with Paulson USA components in the hood.
An arc flash releases its energy in milliseconds, and the incident energy at the working distance determines the severity of any burn injury. A site arc flash study returns that figure in calories per square centimetre. The equipment selected must carry an arc rating at or above it. This ensemble carries a published arc rating of 43 cal/cm2 in the HRC4 category. Standard hoods accumulate heat and fog up, which is why the vented configuration exists.
Building a Category 4 ensemble item by item leaves gaps, and one mismatched garment drops the whole ensemble to its lowest rated item. Supplying the jacket, bib-trousers, gloves, hood and hard hat together removes that variable from the purchasing decision. The vented hood cuts heat build-up and fogging on long isolations in an Australian summer. A waterproof PPE bag keeps the ensemble clean and dry between uses, which matters for equipment that must stay serviceable.
Arc rated equipment reduces the severity of burn injury rather than eliminating risk, and it sits last in the hierarchy of controls behind de-energising, isolating and proving dead. Arc rating and category must be selected against a documented arc flash risk assessment for the specific task and equipment. An arc rating addresses thermal energy from an arc and does not address electric shock, so insulated gloves, matting and test equipment remain separate requirements.
Important:
This product is classified as PPE.
PPE products cannot be returned or refunded.
Change of mind is not an option - Only Warranty Issues.
PPE, or Personal Protective Equipment, is any equipment or clothing used for (personal) protection. PPE includes (but is not limited to) safety glasses, safety goggles, arc kits, ear plugs, respirators, fire blankets, safety harnesses, safety shoes, hard hats, fire blankets, knee pads, sunscreen, etc.
These products are tested by the manufacturer and stamped with a date. Due to this testing and stamping procedure, we can not take back or refund these PPE products. Please make sure you order the correct PPE product.
(ARC-KIT4-S-VT-3XL)
Arc rating expresses the incident thermal energy the material can withstand before the onset of a second degree burn becomes likely. A higher figure means a higher energy exposure is covered. It is a rating against thermal energy from an arc, not a guarantee that no injury occurs.
An arc flash risk assessment or incident energy study calculates the energy at the working distance for the specific equipment and fault conditions. Equipment is then selected with an arc rating at or above that figure. Selection is a documented engineering decision, not a purchasing preference.
No. Arc flash equipment is classified as PPE, and PPE is tested and date-stamped by the manufacturer, so it cannot be returned or refunded for change of mind. Only warranty faults are accepted. Confirm sizing carefully against the manufacturer's size chart before ordering.
Arc rating covers thermal energy released by an arc flash. It is a separate matter from electrical insulation, so shock protection still requires appropriately rated insulated gloves, matting, tools and test equipment. Both hazards need addressing independently in the safe work method.
This SKU is supplied in 3XL. Volt Safety lists other kit sizes as available on request, and lead times can apply to non-standard options. Contact Sparky Direct with the size required before ordering, since PPE cannot be exchanged once supplied.
The waterproof PPE bag supplied with the kit is intended for storage and transport, with a separate bag for the hood. Keep the ensemble clean, dry and away from contaminants, and inspect garments, gloves and the hood visor before each use in line with the manufacturer's instructions.
The kit carries a one year warranty for domestic and commercial use, running from the invoice date, returned to Sparky Direct. Coverage applies to manufacturing faults. Change of mind is excluded because the product is PPE. Report any damaged or faulty goods within 24 hours of delivery.
Volt Safety cites ASTM and NFPA 70E for arc flash, AS 4836 covering safe working on low voltage electrical installations and equipment, AS/NZS 1337.1:2010 for eye protection and AS/NZS 1270 for hearing protection. Confirm the ensemble meets the requirements written into the site safety procedure.
