I have a piece of electrical equipment at a voltage potential of 277VAC to ground. Due to hardware problems I have an air gap of 3/8" from ground to 277VAC when it used to be one inch. Please advise if I am safe to leave it that way or should I add insulation.

17 AnswersPolls & Surveys10 years agoWhere does the explosive force come from an Arc Flash?
Yesterday a friend of mine turned a big refrigeration switch at work and it exploded. It had a three phase 480VAC power souce fused by three large 400A fuses and all three fuses opened. The door flew open with such force that when it hit his arm, his arm was opened up a foot in length down to the bone. The door continued flying open and hit an adjacent structure and left a huge dent in thick steel that the door was made of. No explosive gasses so how was the force generated to provide that much power. The electricity did not touch him and the switch is still in use this morning. What blew the door open?

10 AnswersPolls & Surveys1 decade agoWhy did I not get an apology?
Two hours ago there was loud banging on my apartment door with demands that I open the door with no announcement that they were the police. I peek through the door peep hole and see a bright light. I open the door to see two semi-automatic pistols pointed at my chest and was ordered to sit on my couch with my hands in the air. One cop kept a pistol pointed at me while the other cop looked around my apartment. A guy beat up his girlfriend in another building in the complex and someone told the cops that the perp ran into my apartment. After they were satisfied that I was innocent then they left without so much as an apology. Is it normal police behavior not to offer an apology when they make a mistake?
