Abstract: Arc flash is a significant electrical hazard prevalent in industrial and commercial settings, posing severe risks to worker safety and operational integrity. This paper explores comprehensive strategies to mitigate arc flash hazards through adherence to safety standards, risk assessments, and advanced protection techniques. The study highlights the role of safety standards such as NFPA 70E and OSHA in establishing guidelines for managing electrical hazards, including arc flash boundaries and the use of personal protective equipment (PPE).
