Explosive atmospheres - Part 30-2: Electrical resistance trace heating - Application guide for design, installation and maintenance IEC/IEEE 60079-30-2:2015 (MOD)

This part of IEC 60079 provides guidance for the application of electrical resistance trace heating systems in areas where explosive atmospheres may be present, with the exclusion of those classified as requiring EPL Ga/Da (traditional relationship to Zone 0 and Zone 20 respectively). It provides recommendations for the design, installation, maintenance and repair of trace heating systems including associated control and monitoring equipment. It does not cover devices that operate by induction heating, skin effect heating or direct pipeline heating, nor those intended for stress relieving.

Atmosphères explosives - Partie 30-2: Traçage par résistance électrique - Guide d'application pour la conception, l'installation et la maintenance IEC/IEEE 60079-30-2:2015 (MOD)

La présente partie de la CEI 60079 fournit des lignes directrices pour l'application des systèmes de traçage par résistance électrique dans les emplacements où l'on peut rencontrer des atmosphères explosives, à l'exception de celles classées zone 0. Elle fournit des recommandations pour la conception, l'installation et la maintenance du matériel de traçage et du matériel associé de commande et de surveillance. Elle ne couvre pas les dispositifs qui fonctionnent par chauffage par induction, chauffage à effet de peau ou chauffage par impédance, ni ceux destinés à la libération de contraintes.

Ta del standarda IEC 60079 podaja smernice za uporabo sistemov električnih uporovnih grelnih trakov na območjih, kjer je lahko prisotno eksplozivno ozračje, razen tistih, klasificiranih tako, da zahtevajo EPL Ga/Da (običajno razmerje v povezavi z območjema 0 in 20). Podaja priporočila glede zasnove, namestitve, vzdrževanja in popravila sistemov grelnih trakov, vključno s pripadajočo opremo za nadzor in spremljanje. Ne zajema naprav, ki delujejo z indukcijskim ogrevanjem, ogrevanjem površine ali neposrednim ogrevanjem cevi, niti naprav, namenjenih za odpravo napetosti.

Endorsement notice
The text of the International Standard IEC/IEEE 60079-30-2:2015 was approved by CENELEC as a
European Standard with agreed common modifications.
COMMON MODIFICATIONS
NOTE The Division method of area classification of IEC/IEEE 60079-30-2:2015 is not applicable for a European
Standard, because a correlation with the Equipment Categories according to the European Directive 2014/34/EU
is not possible. Consequently requirements for Divisions 1 and 2 and references to NFPA 70 and CSA C22.1 are
excluded from this standard.
1 Scope
Delete the following sentence in the first paragraph:
"This standard also provides guidance for explosive atmospheres incorporating the Division method of
area classification that may be applied by some users of this standard."
Delete the note:
"NOTE Information on the Division method is given in NFPA 70 and CSA C22.1."

FOREWORD
1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of 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, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications,
Technical Reports, Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC
Publication(s)”). 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.
IEEE Standards documents are developed within IEEE Societies and Standards Coordinating Committees of the
IEEE Standards Association (IEEE-SA) Standards Board. IEEE develops its standards through a consensus
development process, approved by the American National Standards Institute, which brings together volunteers
representing varied viewpoints and interests to achieve the final product. Volunteers are not necessarily
members of IEEE and serve without compensation. While IEEE administers the process and establishes rules
to promote fairness in the consensus development process, IEEE does not independently evaluate, test, or
verify the accuracy of any of the information contained in its standards. Use of IEEE Standards documents is
wholly voluntary. IEEE documents are made available for use subject to important notices and legal disclaimers
(see http://standards.ieee.org/IPR/disclaimers.html for more information).
IEC collaborates closely with IEEE in accordance with conditions determined by agreement between the two
organizations. This Dual Logo International Standard was jointly developed by the IEC and IEEE under the
terms of that agreement.
2) The formal decisions of 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 IEC
National Committees. The formal decisions of IEEE on technical matters, once consensus within IEEE Societies
and Standards Coordinating Committees has been reached, is determined by a balanced ballot of materially
interested parties who indicate interest in reviewing the proposed standard. Final approval of the IEEE
standards document is given by the IEEE Standards Association (IEEE-SA) Standards Board.
3) IEC/IEEE Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC
National Committees/IEEE Societies in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the
technical content of IEC/IEEE Publications is accurate, IEC o
