    SECTION TWO - ELECTRICAL APPARATUS HAVING NO INTERNAL SOURCE OF FLAMMABLE GAS OR VAPOUR

    This section covers the internal pressurization technique particular to electrical apparatus having no internal source of flammable gas or vapour.

    SECTION THREE - ELECTRICAL APPARATUS HAVING AN INTERNAL SOURCE OF FLAMMABLE GAS OR VAPOUR

    This section covers the pressurization and dilution techniques applicabl e to electrical apparatus having an internal source of flammable gas or vapour.

    The recommendations of this section apply both to continuous dilution with air and to pressurization with an inert gas.

    Notes:
