Within the Protect section, the new arc flash standards IEC 61482-2, EN 61482-1-1 and EN 61482-1-2 will be highlighted together with a lightweight, comfortable European layering approach to ensure that the worker is not restricted from cumbersome clothing.

There are now more areas to consider, more industries that might have confined spaces and more emphasis on tasks that create a hazardous area that might be a confined space. Similarly, there is greater clarity on what isn�t a confined space and, mixed in with guidance on training and equipment inspection, there�s plenty to talk about.
