Also Known As:
1 Scope
This
part of IEC 60079
standard
contains the specific requirements for construction and assessment of intrinsically safe electrical systems, type of protection “i”, intended for use, as a whole or in part,in Class I, Zone 0, 1, or 2, or Zone 20, 21, or 22 hazardous (classified) locations as defined by the National Electrical Code® (NEC), ANSI/NFPA 70®

IEC 60079-0
and the intrinsic safety standardANSI/ISA-60079-11 and ANSI/ISA-61241-11
IEC 60079-11
. Where a requirement of this standard conflicts with a requirement ofANSI/ISA-60079-0, ANSI/ISA-60079-11, ANSI/ISA-61241-0

orANSI/ISA-61241-11
IEC 60079-11
, the requirement of this standard takes precedence.
This standard supplements IEC 60079-11, the requirements of which apply to electrical apparatus used in intrinsically safe electrical systems.
The installation requirements of Group II or Group III systems designed in accordance with this standard are specified in the
