What is this standard about?

This part of the IEC 60079 series contains the specific requirements for the design, selection, erection and initial inspection of electrical installations in, or associated with, explosive atmospheres.

Where the equipment is required to meet other environmental conditions, for example, protection against ingress of water and resistance to corrosion, additional protection requirements may be necessary.

This standard applies to all electrical equipment including fixed, portable, transportable and personal, and installations, permanent or temporary.
