Annotation of standard text IEC 60079-17-ed.6.0 :
IEC 60079-17:2023 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 is caused by explosive 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, overhaul and reclamation of explosion protected equipment (see IEC 60079-19). While this document does not include inspection of safety devices such as used in ventilated rooms (see IEC 60079-13), it 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 document supplements the requirements for inspection and testing in non-hazardous areas in IEC 60364-6. This document is intended to be applied where there is a risk due to the potential 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. This sixth edition cancels and replaces the fifth edition published in 2013. This edition constitutes a technical revision. LIEC 60079-17:2023 s’applique aux utilisateurs et couvre uniquement les facteurs directement lies a l’inspection et a la maintenance des installations electriques specialement concues pour les emplacements dangereux, ou le danger provient des atmospheres explosives. Elle ne comprend pas: - les autres exigences fondamentales relatives a l’installation et a l’inspection pour les installations electriques; - la verification des appareils electriques; - la protection ou la ventilation des salles; - les systemes de detection de gaz; - les reparations, les revisions et la remise en etat des appareils proteges contre l’explosion (voir IEC 60079-19). Bien que le present document n’inclue pas l’inspection des dispositifs de securite tels que ceux utilises dans les salles ventilees (voir IEC 60079-13), il inclut les exigences relatives a l’inspection et a la maintenance de chacun des elements des appareils qui font partie de ces systemes, par exemple les moteurs ou les capteurs. Le present document constitue un complement pour les exigences relatives aux inspections et aux essais de l’IEC 60364-6 effectues dans des emplacements non dangereux. Le present document est destine a etre applique s’il existe un risque du a la presence potentielle de gaz explosifs, de melanges de poussieres dans l’air ou de couches de poussieres combustibles dans des conditions atmospheriques normales. Il ne s’applique pas: - aux parties souterraines des mines; - aux poussieres d’explosifs; - aux substances pyrophoriques. Cette sixieme edition annule et remplace la cinquieme edition parue en 2013. Cette edition constitue une revision technique.
