Committed to ELECTRICAL SAFETY, I-Gard provides its customers with Ground Fault & Arc Flash protection systems.
About us
Every company wants the same from it's electrical system - continuity and no safety issues. Electrical hazards such as ground faults, arc flashes, electrical shock impact industry on a daily basis from interrupting processes, damaging equipment and posing a safety risk to personnel but we have the a solution to each. For process facilities concerned about process interruptions, equipment damage, the risk of arc flash that solution is High Resistance Grounding which is recognized by NFPA 70E, CSA ZA462 and the National Electrical Code as a technology that reduces the probability of an arc flash hazard. At I-Gard we take safety one step further by adding optical arc flash mitigation to our HRG systems to reduce probability and impact of an arc flash. For users who cannot for practical reasons convert to HRG technology, we offer ground fault and arc flash protection relays to minimize the impact of an arc flash. For facilities concerned about electric shock we have available both our shock protection panels as well as our new UL labeled Absence of Voltage Tester. Of course our history is as a power resistor company and we continue to offer a full range of dynamic braking, neutral grounding and motor control resistors all manufactured under the CSA SMTC program. Our focus on safety extends to education and awareness and is demonstrated though our partnerships with media companies at providing education editorials, application white papers and our active participation on industry safety and standards panels. When you need electrical safety products, whether protecting your personnel, your key processes or your electrical equipment such as transformers, switchgear and generators, you can trust I-Gard to have the Power to Protect.

🔌 Absence of Voltage Testers (AVTs) are revolutionizing the way we work. By confirming the absence of voltage without the need to open equipment doors, AVTs significantly reduce exposure to electrical hazards. Explore how this innovative, non-contact solution not only minimizes human error but also promotes a positive safety culture. Learn more about the AVTs in our latest article. #ElectricalSafety #AVT #NFPA70E #Innovation #SafetyCulture #WorkplaceSafety
