Energized electrical work exposes workers to shock, arc flash, and arc blast hazards that can cause severe injuries and fatalities. NIXN Electrical Safety Permits enforce a formal authorization process aligned with NFPA 70E — requiring energized work justification, shock and arc flash risk assessment, PPE specification, approach boundary documentation, and qualified person verification before energized work begins.
Each electrical safety permit in NIXN documents the specific equipment, voltage levels, available fault current, arc flash incident energy, required PPE category, and approach boundaries for the planned work. The platform prevents permit issuance until all safety requirements are verified — qualified worker certification, proper PPE availability, rescue equipment positioning, and the energized work justification demonstrating that de-energization is infeasible.
NIXN tracks electrical safety permit data across the organization, providing visibility into energized work frequency, near-miss events during electrical operations, and the arc flash exposure levels workers encounter. Analytics help electrical safety managers evaluate whether engineering controls or operational changes could reduce the need for energized work and lower the organization's electrical injury risk.
