I announced this previously, but now the site is fully completed. The new arc flash web site, that provides in-depth information about arc flash and preventing arc flash injuries, is put out by the folks who make the DuraLabel printer. Although the web site is only partially about labeling, it includes some labeling information as well as a lot of arc flash information in general. The web site is called:

Here are the details. The web site covers topics such as:
- Introduction To Arc Flash (What is arc flash and how can it be prevented?)
