Explosive atmospheres - Part 14: Electrical installation design, selection and installation of equipment, including initial inspection
SIST EN IEC 60079-14:2025

IEC 60079:2024 contains the specific requirements for the design of electrical systems, selection, installation and the required initial inspection of electrical installations of Ex Equipment in, or associated with, explosive atmospheres including requirements for documentation and personnel competency. These requirements are in addition to the requirements for installations in non-hazardous areas. This document applies to all electrical Ex Equipment including fixed, transportable, portable and personal, and installations, permanent or temporary. This document does not apply to: • electrical installations in mines susceptible to firedamp; • inherently explosive situations and dust from explosives or pyrophoric substances (for example explosives manufacturing and processing); • rooms used for medical purposes; • electrical installations in areas where the hazard is due to flammable mist; and • installation of non-electrical Ex Equipment (unless being part of an equipment assembly according IEC TS 60079-46). No account is taken in this document of the toxic hazards that are associated with flammable gases, liquids and dusts in concentrations that are usually very much less than the lower flammable limit. In locations where personnel could be exposed to potentially toxic concentrations of flammable material, appropriate precautions are necessary. Such precautions are outside the scope of this document. This sixth edition cancels and replaces the fifth edition published in 2013. This edition constitutes a technical revision. Edition 6 is a major restructure and introduces a number of technical changes from the previous edition (2013), see Table 1 of the foreword for detailed information.

Explosive atmospheres - Part 26: Equipment with Separation Elements or combined Levels of Protection
SIST EN IEC 60079-26:2024

IEC 60079-26:2021 specifies requirements for construction, testing and marking for Ex Equipment that contains parts of the equipment with different Equipment Protection Levels (EPLs) and a separation element. This equipment is mounted across a boundary where different EPLs are required, for example between different gas hazardous areas, dust hazardous areas or gas hazardous areas adjacent to dust hazardous areas. Separation elements are considered for both electrical and non-electrical equipment. If mechanical energy can be transformed into a potential ignition source, additionally an ignition hazard assessment in accordance with ISO 80079-36 is performed and appropriate measures are undertaken. This document also specifies requirements for the combination of two Types of Protection, each with EPL Gb, to achieve EPL Ga. This document supplements and modifies the general requirements of IEC 60079-0. Where a requirement of this document conflicts with a requirement of IEC 60079-0, the requirement of this document takes precedence. This fourth edition cancels and replaces the third edition and constitutes a technical revision. Please see the IEC 60079-26:2020 foreword for a description of the main changes with respect to the previous edition.

Explosive atmospheres - Part 17: Electrical installations inspection and maintenance
SIST EN IEC 60079-17:2024

This part of the IEC 60079 series applies to users and covers only those factors directly related to the inspection and maintenance of electrical installations specifically designed for hazardous areas, where the hazard may be caused by explosive gas or explosive dust atmospheres. It does not include: - other fundamental installation and inspection requirements for electrical installations; - the verification of electrical equipment; - protection or ventilation of rooms; - gas detection systems; - the repair and overhaul of explosion protected equipment (see IEC 60079-19). While this standard does not include inspection of safety devices such as used in ventilated rooms (see 60079-13), this standard does include the requirements for inspection and maintenance of individual items of equipment that will be part of such systems, for example motors or sensors. This standard supplements the requirements for inspection and testing in non-hazardous areas in IEC 60364-6. NOTE 1 Standards applied at the date of installation might not have been IEC standards. This standard is intended to be applied where there can be a risk due to the presence of explosive gas or dust mixtures with air or combustible dust layers under normal atmospheric conditions. It does not apply to: - underground mining areas, - dusts of explosives, - pyrophoric substances.

Workplace atmospheres - Part 1: Gas detectors - Performance requirements of detectors for toxic gases
SIST EN IEC 62990-1:2023

This part of IEC 62990 specifies general requirements for design, function and performance, and describes the test methods that apply to portable, transportable, and fixed equipment for the detection and concentration measurement of toxic gases and vapours in workplace atmospheres and other industrial and commercial applications. This document is applicable to continuously sensing equipment whose primary purpose is to provide an indication, alarm and/or other output function the purpose of which is to indicate the presence of a toxic gas or vapour in the atmosphere and in some cases to initiate automatic or manual protective action(s). It is applicable to equipment in which the sensor generates an electrical signal when gas is present. This document applies to two types of equipment: - Type HM (Health Monitoring) ‘occupational exposure’ equipment: For occupational exposure measurement, the performance requirements are focused on uncertainty of measurement of gas concentrations in the region of Occupational Exposure Limit Values (OELV). The upper limit of measurement will be defined by the manufacturer in accordance with 4.2.1. - Type SM (Safety Monitoring) ‘general gas detection’ equipment: For general gas detection applications (e.g. safety warning, leak detection), the performance requirements are focused on alarm signalling. The upper limit of measurement will be defined by the manufacturer according to the intended use of the equipment. In general, the requirements for accuracy will be higher for Type HM equipment than for Type SM equipment. The same equipment may meet the requirements of both Type HM and Type SM. For equipment used for sensing the presence of multiple gases this document applies only to the detection of toxic gas or vapour. This document is not applicable to equipment: - with samplers and concentrators such as sorbents or paper tape having an irreversible indication; - used for the measurement of gases and vapours related to the risk of explosion; - used for the measurement of oxygen; – used only in laboratories for analysis or measurement; - used only for process measurement purposes; - used in the domestic environment; - used in environmental air pollution monitoring; - used for open-path (line of sight) area gas measurement; - used for ventilation control in car parks or tunnels.
