Electrical Code (also see: National Electrical CodeŽ)
Electrical Groups Electrical groupings are based on the characteristics
of the materials involved.
These include the following:
-
1. Class I, Group A: Atmospheres containing
acetylene.
-
2. Class I, Group B: Atmospheres containing
hydrogen, fuel and combustible process gases containing more
than 30 percent hydrogen by volume, or gases or vapors of
equivalent hazard such as butadiene, ethylene oxide, propylene
oxide, and acrolein.
-
3. Class I, Group C: Atmospheres such as ethyl
ether, ethylene, or gases or vapors of equivalent hazard.
-
4. Class I, Group D: Atmospheres such as acetone,
ammonia, benzene, butane, cyclopropane, ethanol, gasoline,
hexane, methanol, methane, natural gas, naphtha, propane,
or gases or vapors of equivalent hazard.
-
5. Class II, Group E: Atmospheres containing
combustible metal dusts, including aluminum, magnesium and
their commercial alloys, or other combustible dusts whose
particle size, abrasiveness, and conductivity present similar
hazards in the use of electrical equipment.
-
6. Class II, Group F: Atmospheres containing
combustible carbonaceous dusts, including carbon black, charcoal,
coal, or coke dusts that have more that 8 percent entrapped
volatiles, or dusts that have been sensitized by other materials
so that they present an explosion hazard.
-
7. Class II, Group G: Atmospheres containing
combustibles dusts not included in Group E or F, including
flour, grain, wood, plastic, and chemicals.
