The price of intense electrical burns: Nearly 1,800 days of lost work
Most electricians will tell you that safety is always their #1 priority. When considering electrical hazards on the job, arc flash is perhaps the most lethal threat with temperatures exceeding 35,000 degrees. A 700 mph projectile-producing pressure of an arc flash blast can throw a worker across a room. The release of molten metals can burn through protective equipment and char skin.
