Full Description

1. Scope

1.1

This report gives guidance on the design, selection and erection of electrical installations in areas where there may be explosive gas atmospheres.

Note: Although most of this report is worded in the mandatory form, it offers guidance on installation for which the non- mandatory form of wording is more appropriate. It is up to each National Committee drafting installation rules based on this report to decide which form of wording to use in their national standard or report.

1.2

This report is applicable to all permanent electrical installations within the scope of IEC Publication 364-1: Electrical In stallations of Buildings, Part 1: Scope, Object and Definitions. However, this report may be applied, where appropriate, to electrical installations at higher voltages than the upper limit of IEC Publication 364-1, namely 1000 V a.c. Wherever possible the recommendations of this report should also be applied to electrical installations which may be regarded as temporary, such as experimental, prototype or pilot industrial installations.

1.3

This report is not applicable to:

(a) electrical installations excluded by the scope of IEC Publication 364-1;

(b) electrical installations in mines susceptible to firedamp;

Note: It may apply to electrical installations in mines where explosive atmospheres other than firedamp may be formed and to electrical installations in the surface installation of mines.

(c) electrical installations in areas where the hazard is due to ignitable dusts, or fibres, or from explosives. /

1. Domaine d'application

1.1

Le present rapport constitue un guide pour la conception, le choix et la realisation des installations electriques dans les emplacements ou il peut y avoir des atmospheres explosives gazeuses.

Note. Bien que la plus grande partie du present rapport soit redigee sous forme obligatoire, il s'agit en fait d'un guide d'installation pour lequel une forme non obligatoire aurait ete plus appropriee. Il appartient a chaque Comite national qui etablit des regles d'installation fondees sur le present rapport de decider de la forme du texte a adopter dans sa norme ou son rapport national.

1.2

Le present rapport est applicable a toutes les installations electriques permanentes qui font partie du domaine d'application de la Publication 364-1 de la CEI: Installations electriques des batiments, Premiere partie: Domaine d'application, objet et definitions. Cependant, le present rapport peut etre applique, s'il y a lieu, aux installations electriques de tension plus elevee que la limite superieure indiquee dans la Publication 364-1 de la CEI, c'est-a-dire 1000 V en courant alternatif. Partout ou cela est possible, les recommandations du present rapport devront aussi etre appliquees aux installations electriques qui peuvent etre considerees comme temporaires, telles que les installations experimentales, les installations prototypes ou les installations industrielles pilotes.

1.3

Le present rapport n'est pas applicable:

(a) aux installations electriques exclues du domaine d'application de la Publication 364-1 de la CEI;

(b) aux installations electriques dans les mines grisouteuses;

Note. Il peut s'appliquer aux installations electriques dans les mines dans lesquelles des atmospheres explosives autres que grisouteuses peuvent se former et aux installations electriques a la surface de mines.

(c) aux installations electriques dans les emplacements ou le danger provient de poussiere ou de fibres inflammables ou bien de substances explosives.
