ELECTRO 3RUN: safety shoes for electricians
05.04.2024
Giasco safety shoes with dielectric soles are ideal Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) for electricians and maintenance workers in the electrical industry.
The PPE Regulation (EU 2016/425) sets out the manufacturing requirements for personal protective equipment to ensure it is safe and suitable for its declared use, thus reducing risks and protecting against injuries in the workplace.
Indeed, Giasco shoes with dielectric soles, properly combined with insulating garments and other PPE, ensure optimal protection against electrical shock without compromising on comfort. Three levels of insulation provided by the outsole, puncture-resistant insulating fabric insert, and insole, ensure comfort and protection with every step and even in static positions.
Giasco's safety shoe models with dielectric soles meet the needs of everyone: for outdoor environments, there's the high-cut Thomson 3C060D model, or the new breathable and lightweight 3Run Electro line with triple injection sole and special Hard Rock with dual-density dielectric sole and heat-resistant rubber tread.
These are footwear models for electricians and maintenance workers, but also for those working in renewable energy and increasingly in the e-mobility sector: from electric car manufacturers to battery and charging station producers, to maintenance technicians and mechanics.
To ensure maximum protection against electrical hazards, it is important that the sole is not excessively worn or exposed to wet and damp environments. It is also necessary to ensure that work footwear is not contaminated by conductive materials. For example, soles can collect metal chips, etc., which can reduce the effectiveness of protection.
Giasco safety shoes with dielectric soles are intended as secondary source protection devices and not for live work; they are tested in accordance with the test method established in ASTM F2412-18.
