Work involving electrics and electrical equipment can be risky, but the Ansell ActivArmr Insulating Class 0 Electrical Gloves (Yellow) are here to help. With a smooth finish and protection from touch voltages of up to 1,000V AC and 1,500V DC, these rubber latex gloves are as secure as they are comfortable to wear. These fantastic gloves are available in a range of sizes, so you can more easily find a good fit for your hands.
WHO CAN USE THESE CLASS 0 INSULATION GLOVES?
These Portwest Insulated Gloves are ideal for when you need electrical insulation to protect yourself from low-voltage shock or similar injuries. The gloves are suitable for tasks with a risk of touch voltage, and are ideal for use during electrical work, hybrid engine manufacturing and repair, power maintenance repair and transmission, telecom repair near electrical wires, and maintenance repairs and operations in industrial environments.
TESTING TO EUROPEAN STANDARDS
PPE AGAINST CATEGORY III RISKS - These gloves have been tested for use as PPE equipment to protect against category III risks.
WHAT IS A CATEGORY III RISK?
Category III risks are complex hazards which are severe or life-threatening, or those which can cause irreversible injuries. This includes hazards such as:
- Hazardous chemicals and materials
- Electric shocks and contact with various voltage levels
- Knife wounds
- Deafening/damaging noise levels
In the case of the ActivArmr Class 00 Gloves, the design helps to protect against life-threatening or irreversible injury cause by contact with low-voltage electricity.
Please note: These gloves are a Class 0 Pair of insulating gloves, and they are only suitable for use for as long as they are not damaged in any way.
WHAT DOES CLASS 0 PROTECTION MEAN?
These gloves are rated Class 0 for electrical insulation. This means that they can insulate against a maximum of 1,000V AC and 1,500V DC.
ARE THERE ANY ALTERNATIVES TO THIS RUBBER LATEX GLOVE?
Ansell also make a black variant of this Arc-Flash Resistant Glove. The ActivArmr Class 0 Electrical Insulation Gloves (Black) function similarly to the yellow variant, and offer protection from the same level of electrical voltage. However, the black variant has a case-hardened finish, offering a tougher and more solid glove surface. Speak to our team member should you require different type.
