Electrical apparatus for explosive gas atmospheres - Electrical resistance trace heating - Part 1: General and testing requirements

Specifies general and testing requirements for electrical resistance trace heaters for application in explosive gas atmospheres. The standard covers trace heaters that may comprise either factory- or field- (work-site) assembled units, and which may be series heating cables, parallel heating cables or heating pads and heating panels that have been assembled and/or terminated in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions. This standard also includes requirements for termination assemblies and control methods used with trace heating. The hazardous areas referred to by this standard are those defined in EN 60079-10.

Part 1: General and testing requirements
FOREWORD
1) The IEC (International Electrotechnical Commission) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of the IEC is to promote
international co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To
this end and in addition to other activities, the IEC publishes International Standards. Their preparation is
entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested in the subject dealt with may
participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-governmental organizations liaising
with the IEC also participate in this preparation. The IEC collaborates closely with the International
Organization for Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by agreement between the
two organizations.
2) The formal decisions or agreements of the IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an
international consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation
from all interested National Committees.
3) The documents produced have the form of recommendations for international use and are published in the form
of standards, technical specifications, technical reports or guides and they are accepted by the National
Committees in that sense.
4) In order to promote international unification, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC International
Standards transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional standards. Any
divergence between the IEC Standard and the corresponding national or regional standard shall be clearly
indicated in the latter.
5) The IEC provides no marking procedure to indicate its approval and cannot be rendered responsible for any
equipment declared to be in conformity with one of its standards.
6) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this International Standard may be the subject
of patent rights. The IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
International Standard IEC 62086-1 has been prepared by IEC technical committee 31:
Electrical apparatus for explosive atmospheres.
The text of this standard is based on the following documents:
FDIS Report on voting
31/343/FDIS 31/348/RVD
Full information on the voting for the approval of this standard can be found in the report on
voting indicated in the above table.
This publication has been drafted in accordance with the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 3.
The committee has decided that the contents of this publication will remain unchanged
until 2003. At this date, the publication will be
• reconfirmed;
• withdrawn;
• replaced by a revised edition, or
• amended.
The contents of the corrigendum of February 2003 have been included in this copy.

INTRODUCTION
This part of IEC 62086 is intended to provide a comprehensive overview of the essential
requirements and testing appropriate to electric surface heating equipment used in explosive
gas atmospheres. The requirements of this standard are considered to be the minimum
requirements for zone 1 or zone 2. While some of this work already exists in national
standards or international standards, this standard has collated much of this existing work and
added considerably to it. This standard should be read in conjunction with IEC 62086-2:

Part 1: General and testing requirements
1 Scope
This part of IEC 62086 specifies general and testing requirements for electrical resistance
trace heaters for application in explosive gas atmospheres. The standard covers trace heaters
that may comprise either factory- or field- (work-site) assembled units, and which may be
series heating cables, parallel heating cables or heating pads and heating panels that have
been assembled and/or terminated in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.
This standard also includes requirements for termination assemblies and control methods
used with trace heating. The hazardous areas referred to by this standard are those defined in
IEC 60079-10.
2 Normative references
The following normative documents contain provisions which, through reference in this text,
constitute provisions of this part of IEC 62086. For dated references, subsequent
amendments to, or revisions of, any of these publications do not apply. However, parties to
agreements based on this part of IEC 62086 are encouraged to investigate the possibility of
applying the most recent editions of the normative documents indicated below. For undated
references, the latest edition of the normative document referred to applies. Members of IEC
and ISO maintain registers of currently valid International Standards.
