The OEL AFW25-NCO 25 CAL Coat Kit SwitchGear Hood is a Category 3 arc-flash personal protective ensemble designed to provide comprehensive protection for workers facing 25 cal/cm²-level hazards. This kit pairs a 50" navy coat and matching leggings with non-metallic, non-conductive materials, and includes essential head and eye protection components to support frontline electrical safety tasks. Each piece is part of a US-made garment line, reflecting OEL’s emphasis on domestic production and independent testing to meet arc flash safety standards.
Key features include a hook-and-loop enclosure and dual expansive back paneling for a secure fit and improved mobility under PPE layering. The kit’s combined components—protective coat, leggings, safety glasses, a Class E hard hat with HT lens faceshield, cap bracket, and an assembled Switchgear Hood—offer integrated protection for arc-related exposures while allowing practical access and visibility during work. The included headgear storage bag and arc flash duffle bag aid in organization and transport of the ensemble between job sites.
Users should note the fabric composition is an 88/12 premium Indura cotton blend, and the package specifies care instructions that include bleaching and hydrogen peroxide, highlighting the need to follow washing guidance to maintain fabric integrity. The kit is compatible with NFPA 70E and CSA Z462 standards and carries certifications that affirm its suitability for Category 3 electrical hazards. As with all arc-flash garments, confirm sizing and fit prior to use to ensure coverage and mobility during operations, and reference the accompanying spec sheet for detailed technical information.
