Hazardous Area Classification

Canadian Electrical Code For Industrial Users This essential seminar introduces the Canadian Electrical Code (CEC) as it applies to industrial facilities. Relevant sections of the code are covered with an emphasis on the reasons why the rules exist and interpretation of their requirements. Tutorials incorporating hands-on use of the CEC encourage familiarity and problem solving using the code.

This seminar addresses the degree and extent of a hazardous area classification for facilities handling flammable gases and combustible dusts. The course covers the zone and division method of classification, fugitive emission calculations, ventilation design requirements and the documentation required to support a hazardous area classification design in accordance with Appendix L of the CEC.
