      We are pleased to announce that we have converted this course to a virtual, instructor-led format. Virtual courses may take place over several days in half day sessions. We have redesigned all our courses to maximize learning in a virtual environment. Students will still have the opportunity to participate and interact with the instructor.


      Public courses can be available in both virtual and in person instructor lead formats. Please complete this form to highlight your preference and we will contact you once a course matching your requirements is available.


      Overview


      From equipment selection to wiring methods and installation requirements, the safe installation of electrical equipment in hazardous locations depends on rigorous attention to detail. This course will provide a foundation of knowledge to help operations, maintenance, safety, electrical professionals and other stakeholders systematically apply the requirements for designing, installing and maintaining electrical equipment in hazardous locations. It provides a complete review of requirements based on the zone and division systems of classification for explosive gas and dust atmospheres. 


      Participants will carefully examine the installation requirements based on applicable Codes, standards and best practices gaining an understanding of the differences between the CEC and NEC Codes with respect to the Zone and Division systems of classification, Hazloc product markings, and equipment construction and performance requirements. In addition, they will analyze installations to determine the wiring methods and equipment selection. This course covers both the installation and maintenance in Hazardous areas as well as product Certification.
