Most Australian state and territory electrical regulations stipulate that electrical infrastructure or equipment used in hazardous workspaces must be designed and installed in accordance with AS/NZS (IEC) 60079-14: Explosive Atmospheres, Part 14. CW Electrical & Automation can inspect your electrical setup to determine if it complies with AS/NZS (IEC) 60079-14 and take care of any problems that may be preventing it from being compliant.
Typical applications include:
A hazardous area is an area in which an explosive atmosphere is present, or may be expected to be present, in quantities such as to require special precautions for the construction, installation and use of equipment.
We typically recommend annual hazardous areas electrical inspections, although the ideal frequency will depend on the size of your hazardous zone and the specific equipment in use. A tailored inspection schedule can be created based on your facility’s unique needs.
