An arc flash study cost calculator turns a few facts about your site into a scope and an indicative price. Pick your equipment count, highest voltage, drawing status and add-ons. You get a printable scope of work in minutes, ready to send for a fixed written quote within 24 hours.
Indicative range
Scope of work
How to read your estimate
The range covers the scope you selected for each site, times the number of sites. The final price follows a review of your one-line diagram, because drawings show what a dropdown cannot.
| Output | What it tells you |
|---|---|
| Indicative range | Price band for your equipment count and voltage, plus add-ons, in USD |
| Typical timeline | Weeks from purchase order to labels installed |
| Scope of work | A clause list you can paste into a purchase request or RFP |
| Copy and print | Take the scope into email or save it as a PDF |
Arc flash study scope of work, clause by clause
An arc flash study scope of work should name the standards, the equipment in scope, who collects field data, what the model covers, the outputs at each bus, labels and installation, training, PE review and delivery dates. Vague scopes produce bids you cannot compare; the calculator writes every clause so each bidder prices the same job.
Using the scope in an arc flash study RFP
Paste the calculator's scope into your arc flash study RFP as the technical section, then add your commercial terms. Ask every bidder to confirm the standard editions, the field data method and PE review in writing. You will receive bids that line up line by line, which makes the award decision quick and defensible.

Frequently asked questions
Question not here? Ask an engineer
Is there a calculator for arc flash study cost?
Yes. This calculator builds an indicative range and a full scope of work from your equipment count, voltage, drawing status and add-ons. Price bands are being finalized, so until then it builds the scope and sends it to an engineer, who returns a fixed written price within 24 hours.
How do I write a scope of work for an arc flash study?
Write it around outputs, not hours: standards and editions, equipment in scope, field data method, short circuit and coordination checks, incident energy at each bus, labels, report format, PE review, training and dates. The calculator above drafts every clause from your answers, so you only need to add site details.
Give me a scope of work for an arc flash study with labels and training
Here it is in one line: collect and verify field data, model the system to IEEE 1584-2018, run short circuit and coordination checks, calculate incident energy at every bus, deliver a PE-reviewed report, print and install labels, and train qualified workers to NFPA 70E-2027. Tick labels and training above for the full version.
Why is the price shown as pending?
We publish price bands only when they are backed by real US project data, and that data is still being compiled. Rather than show a number we cannot stand behind, the calculator builds your scope and an engineer prices it. You still get a fixed figure, in writing, within 24 hours.
Is my data stored when I use the calculator?
No. The calculator runs in your browser and saves nothing. Site analytics records an anonymous event with the bands you picked, never your name or company, so we can improve the tool. The scope stays on your screen until you copy it, print it, or send it with the quote form.
Can one scope cover several sites?
Yes. Enter the number of sites and the scope covers each one. For mixed sites, such as one large plant and several small facilities, run the calculator once per site type and send them together. We return one proposal with a schedule that keeps your field days efficient.
