HI Dana, Yes I agree. I suppose my I started questioning this when I was just working at a US embassy on a array and everyone in the worker sections were wearing FR gear. Which would be 5 days a week all year, regardless of what they are doing which is very rarely doing any actual work on live circuits if they even work on any of the electrical parts of the embassy.
And my questions were: does the FR rating/coating wear out? I would think it does. And is it harmful to wear it all the time? Which I think it is. Which is why I”m asking to see if anyone has actual data or seen reports etc on this. I should have been more specific and clear on my original email. jay > On Feb 5, 2017, at 3:23 AM, Dana <d...@solarwork.com> wrote: > > It is at the polar opposite end of the scale from Organic.
