Hazardous Areas and Classification by NEC

NEC articles 500-516 inform about hazardous area classifications and standards application in united states. Article 505 tells the use of zone system for flammable gasses, vapors and liquids. Zones does not apply to dust, fiber or flyings


Table 1 - Class location definitions

 
Table 2 – Area location comparison, Class I NEC® Zone versus Division locations

 
Hazardous area locations are classified by the type of combustible material present, the extent of time it is present, and the physical construction of the area where such material is present.
 
The presence of flammable gasses or vapors in sufficient quantities to produce an explosive or ignitable mixture constitutes a Class I location. A Class II location is characterized by combustible dust. Class III locations have easily ignitable fibers, but not suspended in the air in quantities sufficient to produce an ignitable airborne mixture.

Division 1 locations, in general, are those areas where ignitable or flammable concentrations of combustible materials exist continuously or repeatedly during normal operations. Division 2 locations, in general, are those areas where such materials exist in ignitable or flammable concentrations only during periods of abnormal operating conditions.

Zone 0 locations, in general, are those areas where ignitable or flammable concentrations of combustible materials exist continuously or for long periods of time. Zone 1 locations, in general, are those areas where ignitable or flammable concentrations of combustible materials are likely to or frequently exist during normal operations. Zone 2 locations, in general, are those areas where ignitable or flammable concentrations of combustible materials are not likely to occur during normal operations or will exist for only a brief period of time.

For all of these locations there are also various groups of gasses, vapors, dusts or fibers. The groups have been established based on the ignition energy required for each of the constituents within that group. Table 3 identifies typical materials within each group and the group identification

All flammable materials have an ignition temperature. Even if the material is not exposed to an open flame or spark, they will ignite if they are exposed to an object whose temperature exceeds the ignition temperature for that material. All apparatus designed for installation in hazardous areas are rated for their maximum surface temperature. Consequently, all apparatus have a temperature code associated with their hazardous area classification. Table 4 shows the temperature code/class for apparatus.

selected equipment shall have site casing operational temperature below the above temperature.

                Electrical & Instrument Fabrication & shop Drawing

                What kind of electrical and instrument drawing can be found in fabrication of an oil and gas fabrication project. This only an overview and few drawing samples for who wants to know about a project fabrication -construction, specially for electrical and instrument disciples area. Actually quantity and kinds of drawing are depend on system which are already designed and approved by Engineering and client or project owner.

                Dalam suatu project construction biasa kita temukan istilah EPCI. Biasa setelah bidding project selesai, maka akan di announce pemenang project. Missal untuk engineering dan procurement di menangkan oleh PT A, untuk fabrikasi dimenangkan oleh PT B, untuk offshore installation dimenangkan oleh PT C. Tapi ada juga untuk EPCI ini dimenangkan oleh satu perusahaan.

                E stands for Engineering,
                Engineering is body/company who have designed a project. Here will be discussed and decided about a system made, material consumed, manpower required included skill and competency, method agreed, machine used and how to manage activities and communication flow among discipline, management, contractor, client, owner, third parties inspection and classification

                P is Procurement,
                Normally procurement is how to procure after dealing with supplier and vendor material and schedule delivery and receiving and where are put ; warehouse or need certain condition reservation

                C is Construction,
                Construction is done in site, usually in a yard. Normally yard is located in seashore in order easy to bring product CPP or modules to offshore installation location. First maybe preparation of civil and foundation activities, than structural installation, piping installation, electrical installation and instrument installation, and lastly pre commissioning.

                I is Installation,
                After fabrication finished, next stage is installation. the product will be pulled to edge of sea and put on the barge and do sea fastening and ready to sail away to installation place. During this time shall be prepared all items for offshore installation, lifting equipment capacity, competent crews, scenario of installation etc

                Sekarang kita jump to topic about Electrical & instrument drawing. Actually each client or owner or company have their specification. They have their own terminology like few companies use term “grounding” ,others use term “earthing”. All terminologies actually are agreement in specification /datasheet/manufacturing sheet. All depend how they define and name in their document

                Few drawing samples for Electrical Discipline :
                1. Legend. Legend tells all symbols which are used in drawing in order whoever read drawing can understand everything on drawing
                There are several national and international standards for graphical symbols in circuit diagrams, in particular:
                · IEC 60617 (also known as British Standard BS 3939)
                · ANSI standard Y32 (also known as IEEE Std 315)












                2. Single line diagram. Ada juga memakai istilah one line diagram. Ini biasa nya men deskripsi kan tentang aliran daya listrik, start from generator, bus duct, switchgear, transformer, ke distribution board, than supply untuk
                - motor /pump/ fan/ compressor
                - space heater
                - lighting
                - fire and gas panel
                - Public address and general alarm panel
                - Telecommunication panel
                - Instrument supply panel etc









                3. Block diagram. Di dalam block diagram biasa nya menggambarkan interrelationship among system and existing equipment in global view, usually for electrical about cabling relationship. Below are lighting block diagram sample









                4. Wiring diagram/Interconnection diagram/loop diagram/schematic diagram. so far I have found They are almost same. All are about wiring or cabling detail for real connection. All connection should be labeled by tag no or cable marker for tracking and identification. Below are samples of Junction box







                and turbine-generator wiring connection.









                5. Plan or layout drawing. Plan show location of equipment. Plan usually base on system. E.g. lighting plan, fire and gas plan, public address and general alarm plan, telecommunication plan, navigational aid plan. Below is sample of fire and gas plan









                6. Detail installation drawing. These are detail installation for each equipments or detector or sensor which are given in plan drawing included with each bill of material for each installation. So each plan drawing will have all kinds of detail installation for all equipments /detectors /sensor which are put in plan drawing. Below is sample of strobe light installation detail
