Hazardous areas definition

In electrical and safety engineering, hazardous locations (HazLoc, pronounced haz·lōk) are places where fire or explosion hazards may exist. Sources of such hazards include gases, vapors, dust, fibers, and flyings, which are combustible or flammable. Electrical equipment installed in such locations could provide an ignition source, due to electrical arcing, or high temperature. Standards and regulations exist to identify such locations, classify the hazards, and design equipment for safe use in such locations. please find more information from wiki link and download hazardous areas difinition reference. 

The electric facilities installed in hazardous areas should be explosion proof certified. please refer to related information from the link in our website.
