CNA recently announced its creation of an educational video that takes
an in-depth look at arc blasts, a common hazard in the electrical
industry. The three-minute video, "The Unknown Hazard to Electricity,”
features a CNA customer who encountered an arc blast and how he managed
to survive without injuries.
In the U.S., approximately five to 10 arc blast explosions occur daily,
producing temperatures of up to 35,000oF and the potential to
cause serious injury or even death to workers in the vicinity. This
educational video is one of the many ways in which CNA’s Risk Control
consultants work with their customers to help prevent accidents. For
