Keep your workplace safe by knowing and complying 2012 NFPA 70E

There are hundreds of deaths and thousands of injuries on the job each year.  It is an employer’s responsibility to ensure personnel safety, yet employees must also be able to identify and address electrical hazards.  Avoid tragedies on your watch by increasing your knowledge of the NFPA 70E.  Developed at OSHA’s request, the NFPA 70E is the most widely used codebook.  It is a helpful resource in identifying electrical safety hazards in the workplace and reducing employee exposure to those potentially fatal hazards.

Werner Electric Supply has recognized the importance of NFPA 70E.  As a result, we are stocking the new NFPA 70E 2012 (Standard Edition and Workbook Edition) as well as a complete line Arc Flash PPE to make your team safe in any environment.  Additionally, we offer a detailed and expert-led seminar that will provide you the steps and skills necessary to recognize electrical safety hazards and information required for accurately performing an ARC Flash analysis.  Some of the things you will learn are:

• What causes an ARC Flash
• Regulations and standards
• Methods to reduce ARC Flash, ARC Blast, and Shock Hazards
• How to comply with NFPA 70E 2012 and OSHA requirements

Werner Electric Partners With Customers to Take Nearly 600 Cars Off the Road

A report from Focus on Energy reveals that Werner Electric Supply provided energy-efficient products for 67 projects in 2010 that received financial incentives. These projects resulted in reduced energy costs for our customers by more than $290,000. The reduction in energy consumption equals the removal of more than 3,000 tons of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere.

“We appreciate your leadership in the enhancement of our economy and environment,” said Todd Hanson, Market Provider Service Rep. for Focus on Energy, in a letter to Werner Electric.

Essentially, it’s the equivalent of permanently parking 600 cars.
