Navires de plaisance - Équipements électriques - Protection contre l'inflammation des gaz inflammables environnants (ISO 8846:1990)

La présente Norme internationale prescrit les méthodes d'essai et fixe les prescriptions de conception relatives aux équipements électriques installés sur des navires de plaisance et devant être utilisés en atmosphère explosive sans risquer de provoquer l'explosion des gaz inflammables environnants. Elle n'est pas applicable aux systèmes antidéflagrants ou aux appareillages électriques protégés contre l'explosion tels que définis dans la CEI 79-0. [1] La présente Norme internationale ne traite pas des procédures de protection contre la détérioration des produits ou des éléments fonctionnant dans des mélanges d'hydrogène et d'air. Elle ne traite pas non plus des mécanismes d'inflammation par sources extérieures du type électricité statique, foudre ou autres facteurs non liés à l'appareillage essayé.

Foreword
IS0 (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide
federation of national standards bodies (IS0 member bodies). The work
of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through IS0
technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for
which a technical committee has been establishetl has the right to be
represented on that committee. International organizations, govern-
mental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the
work. IS0 collaborates closely with the InternatL3nal Electrotechnical
Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are
circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an lnter-
national Standard req:lires approval by at least 75 % of the member
bodies casting a vote.
International Standard IS0 8846 was prepared by Technical Committee
ISO/TC 188, Small craft.
Annex A of this International Standard is for information only.
