Explosive atmospheres -- Part 14: Electrical installations design, selection and erection

This part of IEC 60079 contains the specific requirements for the design, selection and erection of electrical installations in explosive gas atmospheres. These requirements are in addition to the requirements for installations in non-hazardous areas. This standard applies to all electrical equipment and installations in hazardous areas whether permanent, temporary, portable, transportable or hand-held. It applies to installations at all voltages.

Explosionsfähige Atmosphäre -- Teil 14: Projektierung, Auswahl und Errichtung elektrischer Anlagen

Atmosphères explosives -- Partie 14: Conception, sélection et construction des installations électriques

La présente partie de la CEI 60079 établit les exigences particulières de conception, de sélection et de montage applicables aux installations électriques situées dans des emplacements dangereux en relation avec des atmosphères explosives.  Lorsqu'il est exigé que le matériel soit conforme à d'autres conditions environnementales, par exemple la protection contre la pénétration de l'eau et la résistance à la corrosion, des méthodes complémentaires de protection peuvent être nécessaires. Il convient que la méthode utilisée ne dégrade pas l'intégrité de l'enveloppe.  Les exigences de la présente norme s'appliquent uniquement à l'utilisation de matériels dans des conditions atmosphériques normales ou proches de la normale. Les modifications techniques significatives par rapport à l'édition précédente sont les suivantes: Les niveaux de protection de matériel (EPLs pour ' Equipment Protection Levels ') ont été introduits et ils sont expliqués dans une nouvelle Annexe I et les exigences pour les poussières  issues de la CEI 61241-14, ed 1.0.

EN 60079-14:2008 – 2 – Foreword The text of document 31J/150/FDIS, future edition 4 of IEC 60079-14, prepared by SC 31J, Classification of hazardous areas and installation requirements, of IEC TC 31, Equipment for explosive atmospheres, was submitted to the IEC-CENELEC parallel vote and was approved by CENELEC as EN 60079-14 on
2008-07-01. This European Standard supersedes EN 60079-14:2003. It constitutes a technical revision with respect to gases and vapours and incorporates the requirements for dusts from EN 61241-14:2004. The incorporation of requirements for dust is without technical change. The significant technical changes with respect to EN 60079-14:2003 are as follows: – knowledge, skills and competencies of "Responsible Persons”, “Operatives" and "Designers" are explained in Annex F; – Equipment Protection Levels (EPLs) have been introduced and are explained in the new Annex I; – dust requirements included from EN 61241-14:2004. NOTE Dust requirements are included as an interim presentation for the purpose of EN 60079-14:2008 and will be refined in a next edition with other required technical changes. The following dates were fixed: – latest date by which the EN has to be implemented
at national level by publication of an identical
national standard or by endorsement

ATEX Categories and Equipment Protection Levels (EPLs) This European Standard has been written to incorporate the concept of Equipment Protection Levels (EPLs). EPLs are analogous to the ATEX Categories, indeed the definitions are identical. Wherever there is a reference to an EPL in the text it should be equated with the corresponding ATEX Category: - EPL ‘Ga’ equates to ATEX Category 1G; - EPL ‘Gb’ equates to ATEX Category 2G; - EPL ‘Gc’ equates to ATEX Category 3G; - EPL ‘Da’ equates to ATEX Category 1D; - EPL ‘Db’ equates to ATEX Category 2D; - EPL ‘Dc’ equates to ATEX Category 3D.
