Free NFPA 70E Training Videos
NFPA 70E is the standard that answers a hard question: how do you work around electrical equipment without being shocked or caught in an arc flash? These free training videos cover its core ideas – establishing an electrically safe work condition, who counts as a qualified person, the limited and restricted approach boundaries, the arc-flash boundary, reading arc-flash labels, and the arc-rated PPE that goes with them. Watch them free, no email required.
OSHA’s electrical rules (29 CFR 1910 Subpart S) set the legal duty, and NFPA 70E is the recognized method for meeting it – which means your electrical safety program needs trained workers and documented qualified-person determinations, not just good intentions. Use these videos and the free practice test below to gauge where your team stands, then see how the complete kit documents the training your program needs. This page covers two related programs – NFPA 70E fundamentals and arc flash safety.

NFPA 70E & Arc Flash Training Questions
Are these NFPA 70E training videos free?
Yes – every video streams free with no email required. Only the downloadable toolbox talk and printable practice test, and the paid kit, are gated.
Is NFPA 70E required by law?
NFPA 70E itself is a voluntary consensus standard – but OSHA’s electrical regulations (29 CFR 1910 Subpart S) are law, and OSHA recognizes NFPA 70E as the standard method for meeting them. In practice, following 70E is how employers demonstrate compliant electrical safe work practices.
Does watching a free video make someone NFPA 70E qualified?
No. A qualified person must be trained and must demonstrate the skills and knowledge to work safely on or near energized parts. Videos build the knowledge; qualification requires hands-on training and a documented employer determination.
What is the arc-flash boundary?
The calculated distance from equipment at which an arc flash could still cause a second-degree burn. Inside it, arc-rated PPE is required – the equipment’s arc-flash label states the boundary and the PPE category or incident energy.
When is energized electrical work allowed?
Only when de-energizing is infeasible or would create a greater hazard – and then only under an energized electrical work permit, performed by qualified persons with a completed risk assessment and the required PPE. De-energize, lock out, and verify is the default.
