Selection of the Correct Electrical Gloves
Each pair of electrical rubber insulating gloves must comply with the IEC 60903 and EN 60903 standards. Insulating gloves should be selected according to their class, which corresponds to the voltage level used; additionally, the gloves are classified into categories according to the environmental resistance properties detailed below.
