The conductive equipment for live works by the ‘’contact’’ method is a personal protective equipment with conductive properties, which by the assembly of its components, represents a protective barrier from the electrical field.
It is recommended to use this equipment for any live works by the ‘’contact’’ method, in power installations with nominal voltage rating of maximum 800 kV AC.
The equipment consists of a conductive clothing set (hooded overall and trousers), a pair of conductive gloves, a pair of conductive socks and a pair of conductive shoes.
In order to provide protection against the effects of the electrical field, all components of the equipment must be connected between them. The fabrics of the clothing set, gloves and socks are resistant against the flame propagation, and the conductive shoes have anti-puncture properties.
