Benefits to Your Organization
Developing NFPA 70E training content with AVO Engineering helps your organization:
Improve Workplace Safety
NFPA 70E training equips learners to identify and control electrical hazards — reducing incidents like arc flash, shock, and electrocution.
Support Regulatory Compliance
Although NFPA 70E is a consensus standard (not federal law), OSHA frequently references it in electrical safety enforcement. Training aligned with NFPA 70E demonstrates a proactive approach to workplace safety and due diligence.
Reduce Operational Risk
Employees trained on proper risk assessments and safe work practices are more effective at hazard recognition and prevention, leading to fewer downtime incidents and lower liability exposure.
Enhance Training Scalability
Our training modules are structured for:
Classroom instruction
Blended learning formats?
LMS delivery (SCORM/xAPI)
This makes NFPA 70E training accessible to diverse learner audiences.
Continuous Code Updates & Practical Effects
Key Challenges of the Industry
The NFPA 70E standard is updated on a regular cycle to reflect changes in technology, safety research, and industry practices. For example, recent editions include updates on arc flash risk analysis, electrically safe work conditions, and personal protective equipment guidance.
These revisions have practical impacts:
New requirements for risk assessment procedures
Expanded safety work practice guidelines
Evolving definitions of shock and arc flash boundaries
Updated PPE selection and hazard control methods
Our training content is developed with code change awareness and version tracking, ensuring your learners receive materials aligned with the most recent NFPA 70E edition — while also offering historical context when needed.
Ongoing Resources & NFPA 70E Insights
Beyond structured training modules, we support ongoing learning with resources such as:
Code update blogs: highlight changes and explain practical effects
Risk assessment guides: walk through real-world safety scenarios
Best practice articles: applied insights into arc flash protection and PPE selection
Safety implementation tips: help learners and professionals embed NFPA 70E principles
Providing continuous learning content can position your training program as a trusted source of up-to-date safety knowledge.
