The Haz-Cat series has it all in one package: head, face and eye protection, FR apparel, voltage rated gloves & voltage rated tools. We offer the Haz-Cat kits in category 2 & 4 platforms consistent with the “Simplified, Two-Category, FR Clothing System” of table H.1 in Annex H of NFPA 70E (2004).
This is a cost effective means of addressing compliance for contractors who face varied risk categories and for site maintenance professionals with diverse electrical systems.
