NFPA Ordinary Hazard Group 1 refers to a classification for fire protection purposes, particularly in the context of the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) standards. This group includes occupancies that present a moderate fire hazard due to the presence of ordinary combustibles, such as wood, paper, and some textiles, but with limited quantities of flammable liquids or hazardous materials. Examples include offices, retail stores, and certain types of warehouses. The classification helps in determining the appropriate fire suppression systems and safety measures needed to mitigate fire risks.

Is church considered nfpa light hazard?

Probably not. NFPA 1 "Hazard of Contents" are defined as High (with 5 levels), Ordinary or Low. The only occupancies that have "low" rating are those primarily for storage of non-combustibles. A church is primarily an assembly occupancy and could not be rated as "low hazard", based upon the risks to numerous human occupants. Types of occupancies other than "storage", even if incidentally storing non-combustibles, would qualify as an "ordinary" hazard, under the theory that some combustible materials will be introduced or hazardous operations conducted, or some psychological factor introduced in case of any fire or other emergency, thus requiring at least "ordinary" fire prevention and means of egress.

Is arc flash safety analysis as described by NFPA 70e required by OSHA?

This is a very complicated matter, but as a practical matter the answer is "Yes." The analysis should be entrusted to an expert in NFPA 70E, OSHA regs, and Arc Flash Hazard Analysis. Arc Flash warning labels alert employees of the dangers they are about to encounter and inform them of the correct PPE. According to OSHA regional director Richard Terrill, "The employer is required to conduct an assessment in accordance with CFR 1910.132(d)(1). If an arc flash is present, or likely to be present, then the employer must select and require employees to use protective apparel. Employees who conduct the hazard/risk assessment, and select and require their employees to use protective clothing and offer PPE appropriate for the task, as stated in the NFPA 70E, are deemed in compliance with the hazard assessment and equipment selection OSHA standard."
