| Electrical Area Classification is a safety system used in industries to identify areas where flammable gases, vapors, or dust may be present, creating a risk of fire or explosion. It ensures the use of specially rated electrical equipment to prevent ignition. Common systems like NEC (using Classes and Divisions) and IEC/ATEX (using Zones) categorize these areas based on the type and frequency of hazardous material presence. This classification helps maintain safety and regulatory compliance in hazardous environments. If you want to know more about electrical area classification, then you can watch this video.
