Warn people at switchboards, switchrooms and other electrical equipment that an arc flash hazard may be present and that suitable PPE is required. Mount on the enclosure or on the approach to the board so it is visible before the door is opened.
This is a general hazard sign in the AS 1319 danger format. AS/NZS 4836:2023 covers safe work on or near low-voltage equipment, including arc flash and PPE, but it does not prescribe one mandatory label layout. If you have an arc flash study, add the voltage, incident energy, boundary and required PPE in the designer. This sign does not replace that assessment.
