AREA CLASSIFICATION
Is your hazardous area classification compliant and up to date?
Recent inspections have found a Person Conducting a Business or Undertaking (PCBU) relying on hazardous substance site plans as their classification. This document has been derived from generic examples in AS/NZS 60079.10.1:2009 and does not include required information such as zone, gas/dust group, temperature class/value, minimum ignition energy.
Without a compliant hazardous area classification, incorrect equipment can potentially be selected and used within the hazardous area, leaving the operator exposed to risk of incident. Our inspections ensure your hazardous area is correctly classified.
