What are the requirements for electronics used in refueling operations -- either gasoline or diesel. Is this always a hazardous location? What separation issues exist from other connected electronics also used there? What specific certifications are applicable -- both in North America and Europe? Looking forward to your comments. >> Regarding US requirements: -NEC Article 500 applies -hazardous locations are defined in detail in NFPA 497 -an excellent resource is the NFPA publication "Electrical Installations in Hazardous Locations" their stock #F6-HLH-97 -some other NFPA documents may apply, e.g. NFPA 407 Aircraft Fuel Servicing Re EU requirements: -look at the ATEX directive -look at EN1127-1 Mike Sherman FSI International --------- This message is coming from the emc-pstc discussion list.
