[/url][/align]Arc Flash vs. Arc Blast
An article by Dave Johnson in ISHN magazine explains the difference between and arc flash and arc blast.
The article is titled "Arc Flash: A Violent Event." It describes the characteristics of an arc flash, beginning the article by stating: "An arc flash is distinctly different from the arc blast. It is part of an arc fault, a type of electrical explosion that results from a low-impedance connection to ground or another voltage phase in an electrical system."
The article explains that an arc blast is the explosive portion of an arc flash event.
