5.3.1 The
following calculations are to be conducted and used in the hazard
identification and assessment:
-
Calculations of
the maximum current that would flow through an electric arc between
each conductor and its adjacent conductor, and between each conductor
and the exposed conductive parts of the enclosure, in the case of
an arcing fault;
-
The maximum incident
energy at the intended working distance in the case of an arcing fault;
-
The distance from
each conductor at which the incident energy would be 5 Joules per
centimetre squared in the case of an arcing fault when the enclosure
door is open.
These calculations may be made in accordance with IEEE Standard
1584, IEEE Guide for Performing Arc-Flash Hazard Calculations,
or another relevant Standard acceptable to LR.
