Abstract

This issue of the magazine is dedicated to electrical safety. The author has been asked to outline some of the advancements in the standards that have resulted from the IEEE Industry Applications Society (IAS) Electrical Safety Workshop (ESW). Over the years, the ESW has provided this networking opportunity for attendees working on better and safer ways to work for other organizations such as the Canadian Standards Association, the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), the International Electrotechnical Commission, and government organizations such as the US Department of Energy. The collaborative IEEE and NFPA study on arc-flash hazards not only meets at the workshop but informs the attendees of their progress each year. This is an open invitation to the members of any IEEE standards working group who feel that they would benefit having a meeting in conjunction with the ESW and opening their group's membership to ESW attendees.
