SS 254-10:2003
Electrical apparatus for explosive gas atmospheres - Classification of hazardous areas (Users can refer directly to relevant parts of IEC 60079)
OVERVIEW
Concerned with the classification of hazardous areas and provides a proper selection and installation of apparatus for use in hazardous areas where flammable gas/vapour risks may arise. Intended to be applied where there may be a risk of ignition due to the presence of flammable gas/vapour, mixed with air under normal atmospheric conditions. Requirements are supplementary to those in SS 254 : Part 0 : 2001 which apply to the classification of hazardous areas. In areas where dangerous quantities and concentrations of flammable gas/vapour may arise, protective measures are to be applied in order to reduce the risk of explosions. Sets out the essential criteria against which the risk of ignition can be assessed, and gives guidance onthe design and control parameters which can be used in order to reduce such a risk.
