Industrial Electrical Systems: Expansion Joints and Arc Flash Protection

Expansion Joint Applications in Power Plants

Expansion joint systems within industrial electrical solutions must show resistance to high temperature and vibration encountered in power generation facilities. Especially used in transformer stations, generator rooms, and distribution panels, these flexible structures absorb thermal expansions and control equipment stress.

Both fabric expansion joints and metal expansion joints serve critical roles in electrical generation systems. These expansion joints maintain balance between components while reducing vibrations and extending system life. Metal expansion joints, which can be produced from different steel alloys, offer a safe working environment with high-temperature resistance.

BundleTec analyzes all types of expansion joint solutions needed in electrical systems with its expert engineering staff and offers custom designs to users.

Arc Flash Protection in Electrical Systems

Industrial electrical solutions are not limited to process equipment. Work safety is also an integral part of this process. Protective clothing used especially in high-risk tasks such as switchgear maintenance and live electrical work plays a critical role in ensuring employee safety.

Garments used in electrical operations are resistant to arc flash hazards and are made of special flame-resistant fabrics. These fabrics provide protection against thermal energy and molten metal that can result from an electrical arc flash event.

Arc-rated garments designed for electrical work reflect thermal energy back, reducing the amount of heat the worker is exposed to. They are also resistant to ignition and provide comfort in long-term use thanks to their ergonomic structures.

BundleTec offers the highest standards in personal protective equipment (PPE) solutions with its expertise in this field. It considers every detail needed to ensure work safety in electrical systems for you.
