in this one the guy turns around and jumps out of the screen at you

Electrical work in hazardous areas demands more than a standard electrical licence. In high-risk industries across Australia, EEHA competencies are critical to ensuring compliance with AS/NZS 60079 standards and maintaining safe operations. Our latest blog explores the vital role of EEHA training in strengthening electrical safety, reducing risk, and meeting regulatory obligations in hazardous environments. RTO 51178 | RTO 52698​

... The explosion-proof certification system is internationally operated as an IECEx system (IEC explosion-proof equipment conformance test system) under the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC). operating as a standard. Although basic technical matters are consistent with IECEx and international mutual certification is in progress, there are only a few countries in the world that allow the use of explosion-proof equipment in their own country only by IECEx type verification, and even now, each country and region (even in Japan) The test must be retaken.

...  홍 대표는 “방폭에 대한 이해도를 높이기 위한 방폭 기본개념 및 방폭 전문가 자격에 관한 전반적인 정보 제공을 위해 폭발 이론 및 방폭 원리 그리고 국내외 방폭 표준 및 동향 분석과 국제방폭개인자격인 'IECEx CoPC' 과정 교육을 이제는 다른 지역에 가지 않고 울산에서도 직접 교육받도록 준비하고 있다”고 말했다.

...  Almost all developed countries are members of the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC). Positive pressure enclosures or “welding habitats” work on the principle of overpressure. This protection principle is regulated by IEC standard 60079-13:2017. The IECEx certification is compulsory to operate electrical equipment in explosive atmosphere in most countries outside Europe

---  The IECEx Certified Equipment Scheme meets the regulatory requirements of more than 30 countries. It is based on a compliance assessment with the technical requirements found in the IEC 60079 series of standards (electrical products); the IEC 80079 series of standards for non-electrical products; and the application of quality systems which have been developed by Technical Committee (TC) 31.

...  The Minimum Energy Performance Standard (MEPS) was introduced in 2009 by EU Commission Regulation EC 640/2009. The regulation required motors of 0.75-375kW to reach international standards set by the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) for single-speed three-phase motors. IE1 describes standard efficiency, IE2 is high efficiency and IE3 is used for motors with premium levels of efficiency.
