As I will sometimes test used 460v equipment, using my 240 -> 476v, 45 kVA transformer, I would like to somewhat enhance my safety, in regards to "arc flash" and other such problems.
What I want to do is this:
1) Wear heavy cotton clothing, like a work jacket 2) Wear a welding helmet 3) Stand on a piece of wood 4) Operate stuff with one hand only 5) As I turn something on, have my employee stand by and hold a handle of a disconnect leading TO the transformer. 6) If he sees or hears anything untoward, he would be instructed to immediately turn the disconnect off.Does this make sense?
