Printing arc flash labels begins with performing arc flash hazard analysis in EasyPower’s Short Circuit focus, through which arc flash hazards are analyzed and reported on the Arc Flash Hazard Report. The interactive interface of the Arc Flash Hazard Report is the platform from which Arc Flash Labels can be printed in EasyPower.
Label printing involves many different components as illustrated here.

Arc Flash Hazard Report—analysis results flow from this report into the printed labels.
Label Template—the template controls how labels are printed. Several templates are provided with EasyPower to address different scenarios.
Label Stock—blank or partially preprinted labels come from label manufacturers such as Avery, Brady and DuraLabel. Some label stock comes die-cut in rolls for a thermal printer, while some comes in sheets intended for use in a label printer. Several pre-measured page layouts are available when printing labels which match common label stock.
EasyPower’s label designer also includes the customization of a label template to meet your specific needs.
EasyPower’s arc flash label printing functionality pulls data directly from arc flash analysis ensuring you can be confident that information printed on labels comes from industry standard calculations built into EasyPower. The label design tool enables you to customize the printed labels including layout, fields, text, fonts, colors, and images. This gives you full control on how labels appear, to ensure your labeling requirements are met.
