This is achieved with the current state of the art equipment and protective devices. It is recognized that in the existing distribution systems, not specifically designed with this objective, it may not be possible to reduce arc flash hazard to this low level, unless major changes in the system design and protection are made. A typical industrial distribution system is analyzed, and tables and time coordination plots are provided to support the analysis. Unit protection schemes and practical guidelines for arc flash reduction are provided. The methodology of IEEE 1584 [1] is used for the analyses. 606 $aPaper industry$vCongresses 606 $aPapermaking$vCongresses 615 0$aPaper industry 615 0$aPapermaking 676 $a676 702 $aIEEE Staff 801 0$bPQKB 906 $aPROCEEDING 912 $a9910140797103321 996 $aConference Record of 2010 Annual Pulp and Paper Industry Technical Conference$92509944 997 $aUNINA
