What is the AC retest voltage for Class 3 rubber gloves?

The AC retest voltage for Class 3 rubber gloves is established at 30,000 VAC. This voltage is significant in ensuring that the gloves are functioning properly and can provide the necessary protection when working with electrical equipment.

Class 3 rubber gloves are used for high-voltage applications and must withstand a certain level of voltage during testing to ensure their integrity and reliability in ensuring worker safety. A retest at this voltage level helps to verify that the gloves have not been compromised by wear, damage, or other factors that could affect their insulating properties.

The established 30,000 VAC retest voltage is a standard based on industry regulations, ensuring that all safety measures are met for personnel working in environments with potentially hazardous electrical exposure. This standard is critical in electrical safety protocols and is designed to prevent accidents and injuries on the job site.
