Heat in the afternoon. Long hours of work. Working outdoors when the weather is bad is not easy at all, especially in some professions. On the other hand, in some sectors such as the electrical industry, workers face the risk of an electric arc daily. Even though there is equipment that offers protection against the electric arc, it usually is very heavy, so workers sometimes don\u2019t put it when it\u2019s hot, which increases the risk of accidents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, nowadays, electrical operators have GORE-TEX PYRAD\u00ae garments with arc flash protection. These garments remain comfortable and light both dry and wet. In addition, they offer long-lasting waterproofing and protect against the thermal risks of the electric arc. In other words, they provide a maximum level of comfort and protection. Therefore, you can be and feel safe in any situation.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"gb-grid-wrapper gb-grid-wrapper-a110b6a1\">\n<div class=\"gb-grid-column gb-grid-column-41c46bea\"><div class=\"gb-container gb-container-41c46bea\"><div class=\"gb-inside-container\">\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-verse\"><strong>GORE-TEX PYRAD\u00ae<\/strong> <strong>Products<\/strong><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Breathable waterproof windbreaker with protection against electric arc flash<\/h2>\n\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n<div class=\"gb-grid-column gb-grid-column-2d58f420\"><div class=\"gb-container gb-container-2d58f420\"><div class=\"gb-inside-container\">\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"319\" src=\"https:\/\/oroel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/gore-pyrad_Mesa-de-trabajo-1.jpg\" alt=\"gore pyrad\" class=\"wp-image-4498\" srcset=\"https:\/\/oroel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/gore-pyrad_Mesa-de-trabajo-1.jpg 500w, https:\/\/oroel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/gore-pyrad_Mesa-de-trabajo-1-300x191.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>&#8220;It is appreciated that the jacket is so light, since the harness is very heavy&#8221;<\/p><p>&#8220;The jacket dries very well.&#8221;<\/p><cite><br>Real workers\u2019 testimony<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/oroel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/gore-tex-pyrad-proteccion-frente-al-arco-electrico-1-1024x536.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-4520\" width=\"796\" height=\"417\" srcset=\"https:\/\/oroel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/gore-tex-pyrad-proteccion-frente-al-arco-electrico-1-1024x536.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/oroel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/gore-tex-pyrad-proteccion-frente-al-arco-electrico-1-300x157.jpg 300w, https:\/\/oroel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/gore-tex-pyrad-proteccion-frente-al-arco-electrico-1-768x402.jpg 768w, https:\/\/oroel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/gore-tex-pyrad-proteccion-frente-al-arco-electrico-1-600x314.jpg 600w, https:\/\/oroel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/gore-tex-pyrad-proteccion-frente-al-arco-electrico-1.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 796px) 100vw, 796px\" \/><figcaption>Before using them, garments are exposed to heavy rain to prove their breathability.<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"gb-grid-wrapper gb-grid-wrapper-615b2eb3\">\n<div class=\"gb-grid-column gb-grid-column-135b33c6\"><div class=\"gb-container gb-container-135b33c6\"><div class=\"gb-inside-container\">\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/oroel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/resistencia-lluvia_Mesa-de-trabajo-1.jpg\" alt=\"resistencia lluvia\" class=\"wp-image-4470\" width=\"250\" height=\"250\" srcset=\"https:\/\/oroel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/resistencia-lluvia_Mesa-de-trabajo-1.jpg 500w, https:\/\/oroel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/resistencia-lluvia_Mesa-de-trabajo-1-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/oroel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/resistencia-lluvia_Mesa-de-trabajo-1-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/oroel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/resistencia-lluvia_Mesa-de-trabajo-1-100x100.jpg 100w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 250px) 100vw, 250px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Waterproof, windproof and highly breathable materials, and designs for the long run.
