The difference between insulating gloves and ordinary protective gloves?

The insulating gloves are different from the ordinary gloves in design. The insulating gloves are made of insulating rubber material in the structural design. The insulating layer forms a closed insulating system to protect the hands. The ordinary glove is not an insulating material, and the insulation performance is very low and easy to leak. Insulated gloves must be tested for electrical properties before they leave the factory. However, ordinary gloves do not have this requirement.

C&G Power Industry Class 0 - 4 Electrical Insulating Gloves

Classification Electrical Safety Gloves

OSHA outlines electrical protective equipment in 29 CFR 1910.137. Electrical safety gloves are categorized by the level of voltage protection they provide and whether or not they are resistant to ozone. The voltage breakdown is as follows:

Class of Equipment	Maximum Use Voltage (AC)	Proof Tested (VAC)	Proof Tested (VDC)
00	500	2,500	10,000
0	1,000	5,000	20,000
1	7,500	10,000	40,000
2	17,000	20,000	50,000
3	26,500	30,000	60,000
4	36,000	40,000	70,000

Classification ordinary protective gloves

There are a wide variety of protective gloves, in addition to chemical resistance, there are anti-cutting, electrical insulation, waterproof, cold, heat radiation, fire-resistant flame resistant and other functions, it should be noted that the general anti-acid gloves and chemical resistance The protective gloves are not equivalent, because many chemicals have different penetrability with respect to the glove material, so protective gloves that prevent penetration of various chemicals should be selected when necessary.
