Electrical equipment can provide an ignition source in a hazardous area!

Electrical equipment can provide an ignition source because an electrical circuit can raise the temperature of equipment surfaces and also generate even brief, seemingly harmless arcs and sparks. In other words, two main sources of ignition from an electrical equipment are hot surfaces and arcs and sparks.
Even though electrical devices can present or create conditions that become explosive if all the required elements of the fire triangle are present, electrical equipment is still required, even in hazardous locations.
Electrical equipment installed in hazardous locations must therefore be protected so explosions are prevented!
