The OEL AFW40F-KFC 40 CAL Coverall Kit SwitchGear Hood is a Category 4 arc flash PPE package designed to provide FR protection and head/eye/face coverage for qualified electrical work. The kit centers on a 40 CAL / CAT4 coverall built from an 88/12 premium Indura cotton blend, with non-metallic, non-conductive materials and an integrated design that supports arc flash protection requirements while allowing practical movement on the job. The garment includes features such as a hook-and-loop closure, torso-adjusting fasteners, a standard 32 inch inseam with a 24 inch leg slit, dual back paneling for mobility, and an elastic waistband that accommodates up to 6 inches of waist expansion to help fit a range of body types and layering needs. Taken together, these design elements contribute to worker mobility and comfort while maintaining the level of protection expected in Category 4 arc flash environments.
The kit assembles essential PPE components beyond the coverall: safety glasses, a Class E rated hard hat, a protective faceshield with a headgear system, a cap bracket, and an arc flash duffle bag for equipment transport and storage. It also offers options for a complete Switchgear Hood or Lift Front Hood configuration, with a headgear storage bag included. For maintenance, the washing instructions specify non-chlorine care considerations (bleach and hydrogen peroxide), and the kit’s materials are intended for domestic production and assembly in the USA according to the manufacturer’s notes. The kit is compatible with standard arc flash safety standards and compliance expectations, including NFPA 70E, CSA Z462, ASTM F1506/F2178, and OSHA 1910.269, helping facilities meet regulatory requirements for protective apparel in electrical environments.
