    This course is designed to provide the participant with an understanding of the characteristics of flammable materials, classification of hazardous locations, types of equipment used in hazardous locations, typical wiring systems, and inspection and maintenance guidelines.

    Hazardous areas exist in many industrial and commercial facilities where process information is gathered using sensors, switches, and manually operated controls. Hazardous conditions can exist during normal daily operations as a result of the release of flammable materials into the atmosphere. Releases can occur due to leaks at valves and pipe flanges, from routine maintenance where a seal is being replaced, or where a process results in the regular escape of gases and vapors.

    In many jurisdictions, either government or company mandated training is required for personnel working in these environments. There are many occupations and workers employed in this sector of industry that are affected by the safety requirements for working in hazardous locations. Upon completion of this course participants will have an understanding of the hazardous conditions associated with working in industrial and commercial oil and gas production facilities.

    This course is mainly targeted to electrical and instrumentation technicians working in the field as an introduction or refresher. The course can also be applicable to employees working with equipment purchasing, procurement, storage, and job planning, as well as immediate supervisors to the working technicians.

    Anyone taking this course should be familiar with electrical and instrumentation installations in an industrial setting.
