IEEE 1584-2018 calculation support

Make the arc-flash math reviewable.

Enter panel data, inspect both arcing-current branches, and produce a traceable label bundle without hiding the assumptions behind a single result.

Versioned documents

Inputs, flags, engine version and method stay attached.

Fails outside scope

Unsupported cases stop instead of extrapolating.

Review status is visible

Independent qualified review: pending.

Workflow

From field inputs to a defensible record.

01

Establish the inputs

Voltage, available fault current, electrode configuration, gap, working distance, and clearing time at both arcing-current branches.

02

Review the calculation

Inspect incident energy, boundary, method limits, flags, and intermediate values before treating the result as field data.

03

Produce the record set

Generate a warning label, calculation record, and energized-work permit from one versioned assessment.

What ships

One assessment. Three connected documents.

The label, calculation record and permit use the same stored inputs and method-specific PPE basis. No transcription step between them.

  • Warning label in 4×6, 4×4 or 3.5×5 stock
  • Calculation record with inputs, branches, notes and provenance
  • Energized-work permit prefilled with assessment values
  • Watermarked preview before any commercial action
  • Re-downloadable panel record after unlock

Before you rely on it

Questions the product should answer plainly.

Does the calculator assign a PPE category?+

Only when the NFPA 70E PPE category method is actually used and its limits are met. Calculated IEEE 1584 results show incident energy and the minimum arc-rating basis; they are not converted to a category.

Is this a PE-stamped arc-flash study?+

No. It is calculation and document support for qualified-person workflows. It does not replace a facility study, equipment-condition assessment, training, energized-work justification, or professional review.

What happens outside the verified model range?+

The result switches to a verified table-method row where one applies. Otherwise it says engineering study required and withholds an invented energy, category, or boundary.

Can I inspect the result before paying?+

Yes. The numeric result and the watermarked label preview are free. Commercial downloads remain fail-closed until checkout and delivery have passed their launch verification.
