SECTION 2: SAFE PRACTICES
Eaton’s RPR-2 assists in the insertion and removal of power circuit
breakers. Although proper use of the RPR-2 reduces the probability
of injury by increasing the distance of the qualified operating
personnel from the arc flash boundary, must follow local safe
practices and the requirements of personal protective equipment
(PPE) to protect personnel from arc flash exposure as determined by
NFPA 70E.
