>Australian Standard 2380.7-1987 and IEC 79-11. Both these standards are for hazardous areas, in particular using intrinsic safety as the protection method. These standards are above and beyond "basic safety" and therefore 950 or 1950 will not suffice. The similar USA hazardous area standards would be FM 3610, UL 913 (?), and ISA RP12.6. I would not make the assumption that if you meet 950 or 1950 for ITE you can meet AS 2380.7 or IEC 79-11. They are entirely seperate. hope this helps. eric [email protected] Eric Henning [email protected] these are only my opinions
