Introduction 

Working with electricity poses significant risks, including electrical shocks, arc flashes, and burns. To ensure safety, electrical gloves are a critical piece of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) for workers in electrical maintenance, utility services, and industrial operations. 

With recent advancements, the latest Electrical Gloves from RAAH Group now feature improved insulation, ergonomic design, and enhanced durability, ensuring maximum safety and comfort in high-risk environments. 

What Are Electrical Gloves? 

Electrical gloves are insulating rubber gloves designed to protect workers from electric shocks, arc flashes, and high-voltage currents. They are categorized based on voltage resistance and comply with industry safety standards such as ASTM D120 and IEC 60903. 

Types of Electrical Gloves 

Electrical gloves are classified based on the voltage they can withstand: 

Class 

Max AC Voltage 

Max DC Voltage 

Class 00 

500V 

750V 

Class 0 

1,000V 

1,500V 

Class 1 

7,500V 

11,250V 

Class 2 

17,000V 

25,500V 

Class 3 

26,500V 

39,750V 

Class 4 

36,000V 

54,000V 

Each class provides different levels of protection, ensuring that workers can choose gloves based on their specific job requirements.

Importance of Electrical Gloves in Industrial Use 

✅ Prevents Electrical Shock & Fatalities 

Electrical gloves act as a barrier against dangerous voltage levels, reducing the risk of electric shocks, burns, and fatal injuries. 

✅ Ensures Compliance with Workplace Safety Regulations 

Regulatory bodies like OSHA and NFPA mandate the use of electrical gloves in high-voltage environments. Compliance avoids penalties and workplace accidents. 

✅ Protects Against Arc Flash Hazards 

Arc flashes can reach temperatures of up to 35,000°F. Properly insulated gloves protect workers from severe burns in case of an electrical explosion. 

✅ Reduces Workplace Accidents & Improves Efficiency 

Using certified electrical gloves prevents workplace injuries, reducing downtime and ensuring smooth industrial operations. 

✅ Essential for High-Risk Industries 

Industries that require electrical gloves include: 

Power Generation & Electrical Maintenance 

Oil & Gas Industry 

Manufacturing & Heavy Industries 

Construction & Utility Services 

How to Choose the Right Electrical Gloves? 

✔️ Identify Voltage Requirements – Choose gloves based on the voltage level of your work environment.  ✔️ Ensure Certification & Compliance – Look for gloves that meet ASTM D120 and IEC 60903 standards.  ✔️ Select the Right Size & Fit – Properly fitting gloves enhance dexterity and comfort.  ✔️ Use Leather Over-Gloves – For extra mechanical protection against cuts and abrasions.  ✔️ Perform Regular Inspections – Check for tears, punctures, and wear before use.
