Join us as Jim Phillips, P.E. founder of brainfiller.com, ArcFlashForum.com and Secretary of the IEEE 1584 working group takes you from the history of DC arc flash up though the calculation methods. By using a series of examples, Jim will walk you through the DC arc flash calculation process.
• Need for DC arc flash calculations
• DC arc resistance calculations
• DC arc power and energy
• DC incident energy calculations
• DC arc flash calculations – open air
• DC arc flash calculations – enclosures
Biography: With a career spanning over 30 years, Jim Phillips has taught tens of thousands of people from around the world understand electrical power system design, analysis and safety. He is the founder of www.Brainfiller.com and www.ArcFlashForum.com
Jim literally “wrote the book” about arc flash studies with “Complete Guide to Arc Flash Calculation Studies” Jim is Secretary of IEEE 1584 and is the Liaison Officer of the IEC working group 13 based in Europe. He is a regular contributor to Electrical Contractor Magazine.
Jim continues to travel the globe typically flying over 150,000 miles a year to work with various U.S. and international standards organizations and speak at many conferences and training events.

Rectifiers, Photovoltaics, Battery Systems, DC power is everywhere. And with it, the possibility of a DC arc flash.
When IEEE 1584 Guide for Arc Flash Hazard Calculations was first published in 2002, it did not consider DC arc flash. Subsequent to the 2002 Edition, several technical papers have been developed regarding DC arc flash and calculation methods.Join us as Jim Phillips, P.E. founder of brainfiller.com, ArcFlashForum.com and Secretary of the IEEE 1584 working group takes you from the history of DC arc flash up though the calculation methods.
