Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

An arc flash is an electrical explosion that occurs when there is a short circuit through the air between conductors or from a conductor to ground, leading to a sudden release of electrical energy. This energy release can cause extreme heat, light, and pressure, resulting in potential harm such as burns, shrapnel injuries, and other damage.
