    EX Training, Internal Certification

    Course Description

    • Basic Course delegates will gain knowledge, understanding, and practice in the preparation, installation, inspection, and scheduled maintenance of equipment installed in potentially hazardous areas according to international standards as IEC 60079, ATEX 95 ,…..
    • The course also covers the standards for the manufacture and installation of equipment and their protection concepts where such equipment may be installed in potentially flammable atmospheres.
    • Electrical installations in hazardous locations require rigorous attention to detail. It is essential that equipment used in these locations be designed to the applicable standards and tested prior to installation to help ensure it does not initiate an explosion.
    • This five days Basic course will help attendees to understand requirements for designing, installing, and maintaining electrical equipment in hazardous areas, providing a review of classifications based on division, zone, and dust, gas and fiber areas.
    • Attendees will examine installation requirements based on applicable codes, standards, and best practices. Moreover, attendees will understand the differences between the Codes with respect to Division and Zone classifications, hazardous location product markings, and equipment construction & performance requirements. You will also learn to evaluate prospective installations to determine appropriate wiring methods and equipment selection.
