Why This Webinar Matters

NFPA 70E® continues to be one of the most influential standards governing electrical safety, energized electrical work, arc flash risk reduction, and workplace safe work practices. As the standard evolves, organizations must understand how these changes impact electrical safety programs, maintenance procedures, training requirements, compliance initiatives, and field operations. NFPA 70E is revised on a three-year cycle, and organizations are expected to stay current with evolving electrical safety requirements and safe work practices.

The 2027 edition introduces significant updates that may affect how companies approach energized work, battery systems, risk assessments, PPE requirements, qualified electrical worker training, and overall electrical safety strategy.

This webinar is designed to help electrical professionals understand not only what changed, but why those changes matter and how they may impact real-world operations, compliance expectations, and workplace safety.

Whether you manage electrical safety programs, oversee maintenance operations, conduct arc flash studies, support compliance initiatives, or supervise qualified electrical workers, understanding these changes is critical.

Presented by Internationally recognized electrical safety expert Jim Phillips, P.E.
