Part 19: Equipment repair, overhaul and reclamation

FOREWORD
1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote
international co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To
this end and in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications,
Technical Reports, Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC
Publication(s)”). Their preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested
in the subject dealt with may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-
governmental organizations liaising with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely
with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by
agreement between the two organizations.
2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international
consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all
interested IEC National Committees.
3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National
Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC
Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any
misinterpretation by any end user.
4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications
transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence
between any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in
the latter.
5) IEC itself does not provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certification bodies provide conformity
assessment services and, in some areas, access to IEC marks of conformity. IEC is not responsible for any
services carried out by independent certification bodies.
6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication.
7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and
members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or
other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and
expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC
Publications.
8) Attention is drawn to the Normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referenced publications is
indispensable for the correct application of this publication.
9) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this IEC Publication may be the subject of
patent rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
International Standard IEC 60079-19 has been prepared by subcommittee 31J: Classification
of hazardous areas and installation requirements, of IEC technical committee 31: Equipment
for explosive atmospheres.
This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition published in 2006 and constitutes a
technical revision.
The significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition are as follows:
· inclusion of specific Group I requirements;
· inclusion of offshore requirements.

Full information on the voting for the approval of this standard can be found in the report on
voting indicated in the above table.
This publication has been drafted in accordance with the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
A list of all parts of the IEC 60079 series, under the general title Explosive atmospheres, can
be found on the IEC website.
The committee has decided that the contents of this publication will remain unchanged until
the stability date indicated on the IEC web site under "http://webstore.iec.ch" in the data
related to the specific publication. At this date, the publication will be
• reconfirmed,
• withdrawn,
• replaced by a revised edition, or
• amended.

INTRODUCTION
When electrical equipment is installed in areas where dangerous concentrations and
quantities of flammable gases, vapours, mists or dusts may be present in the atmosphere,
protective measures are to be applied to reduce the likelihood of explosion due to ignition by
arcs, sparks or hot surfaces produced either in normal operation or under specified fault
conditions.
This part of IEC 60079 is supplementary to other relevant IEC standards, for example
IEC 60364 series, as regards installation requirements, and also refers to IEC 60079 series
and its appropriate parts for the design requirements of suitable electrical equipment.
Clause 4 of this part of IEC 60079 contains general requirements for the repair and overhaul
of equipment and should be read in conjunction with the other relevant clauses of this
standard dealing with the detailed requirements for individual types of protection.
In cases where protected equipment incorporates more than one type of protection, reference
should be made to all clauses involved.
This part not only gives guidance on the practical means of maintaining the electrical safety
and performance requirements of repaired equipment, but also defines procedures for
maintaining, after repair, overhaul or reclamation, compliance of the equipment with the
provisions of the certificate of conformity or with the provisions of the appropriate explosion
protection standard where a certificate is not available.
The nature of the explosion protection offered by each type of protection varies according to
its unique features. Reference should be made to the appropriate standard(s) for details.
Users will utilize the most appropriate repair facilities for any particular item of equipment,
whether they be the facilities of the manufacturer or a suitably competent and equipped
repairer (see Note).
This part recognizes the necessity of a required level of competence for the repair, overhaul
and reclamation of the equipment. Some manufacturers may recommend that the equipment
be repaired only by them.
In the case of the repair, overhaul or reclamation of equipment which has been the subject of
design certification, it may be necessary to clarify the position of the continued conformity of
the equipment with the certificate.
NOTE Whilst some manufacturers recommend that certain equipment be returned to them for repair or
reclamation, there are also competent independent repair organizations who have the facilities to carry out repair
work on equipment employing some or all of the types of protection covered by IEC 60079 series. For repaired
equipment to retain the integrity of the type(s) of protection employed in its design and construction, detailed
knowledge of the original manufacturer’s design (which may only be obtainable from design and manufacturing
drawings) and any certificate documentation may be necessary. Where equipment is not being returned to the
original manufacturer for repair or reclamation, the use of repair organizations that are recommended by the
original manufacturer should be considered.

EXPLOSIVE ATMOSPHERES –
Part 19: Equipment repair, overhaul and reclamation

1 Scope
This part of IEC 60079
– gives instructions, principally of a technical nature, on the repair, overhaul, reclamation
and modification of equipment designed for use in explosive atmospheres;
– is not applicable to maintenance, other than when repair and overhaul cannot be
disassociated from maintenance, neither does it give advice on cable entry systems which
may require a renewal when the equipment is re-installed;
– is not applicable to type of protection “m”, “o” and “q”;
– assumes that good engineering practices are adopted throughout.
NOTE Much of the content of this standard is concerned with the repair and overhaul of electrical machines. This
is not because they are the most important items of explosion-protected equipment, but rather because they are
often major items of repairable capital equipment in which, whatever type of protection is involved, sufficient
commonality of construction exists as to make possible more detailed instructions for their repair, overhaul,
reclamation or modification.
