Research
Both the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) and the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) have joined forces in an initiative to fund and support research and testing to increase the understanding of arc flash. The results of this collaborative project will provide information that will be used to improve electrical safety standards, predict the hazards associated with arcing faults and accompanying arc blasts, and provide practical safeguards for employees in the workplace.

Famous quotes containing the word research:

—Peter B. Medawar (1915–1987)
“I did my research and decided I just had to live it.”

“Feeling that you have to be the perfect parent places a tremendous and completely unnecessary burden on you.

—Lawrence Kutner (20th century)
