The document discusses hazardous areas and explosion protection. It defines a hazardous area as an area containing an explosive gas or air mixture. It explains the concepts of the fire triangle, area classification, minimum ignition current, and protection methods. The key points are:
- Hazardous areas are classified based on the likelihood and duration of an explosive atmosphere occurring. They are divided into Zones 0, 1, and 2.
- Electrical equipment used in hazardous areas must be certified for the specific gas, temperature class, and zone to prevent explosions from occurring.
- Factors like gas properties, ventilation, and probability of a release are considered in the area classification process to select the proper electrical equipment.

Hazardous Location Protection Methods Explained.
By definition, a hazardous (classified) location is an area in an industrial complex where the atmosphere contains flammable concentrations of gases or vapors by leakage, or ignitable concentrations of dust or fibers by suspension or dispersion.
The treatment of dangerous substances, where the risk of explosion or fire exists that can be caused by an electrical spark, arc, or hot temperatures, requires specifically defined instrumentation located in a hazardous location. It also requires that interfacing signals coming from a hazardous location be unable to create the necessary conditions to ignite and propagate an explosion.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.

4. In the 1700's, certain gases or the lack of oxygen were detected with various
hit and miss types of detection. The candles on miners caps, or if carried by
the miner, would either go out from the lack of oxygen or the flame would get
larger with a different coloring of the flame if certain gases were in the area.
Of course, in some instances these open flames caused fires or explosions. By
1815, the Davy's Safety Lamp came into use in the mines. This certainly
changed the way for miners to check for certain gases.
They took these canaries in small cages with them down the coal mines where
they worked. The canaries were the miners alarm signal to show them when
the coal-gas levels got too high. The canary stopped singing and was most
likely to be laid feet up on the bottom of the cage, poisoned by the mine gas.
5. FLAMMABLE MATERIAL :-
CONTAIN FLAMMABLE GAS ,
VAPOURS , DUST etc
Eg- GASOLINE, PROPANE, HEXANE,
AMMONIA etc
6. Hazardous atmosphere is an atmosphere that
may expose a worker to the risk of death or
incapacitation, or prevent a worker from
getting out of the confined space because of
an injury or critical illness. Such an
atmosphere can be
explosive, flammable, poisonous, corrosive,
oxidizing, irritating, oxygen
deficient, toxic, or otherwise harmful which
can result in death, illness ..
7. IGNITION ENERGY :-
A specific mixture of fuel and oxidant
that yields the most rapid combustion at
a specific measured quantity.
FLASH POINT :-
The flash point of a volatile material is
the lowest temperature at which it can
vaporize to form an ignitable mixture
in air.

10. Why Area Classification???
HAC is a method of analyzing and
classifying the environment where
explosive gas atmospheres may
occur to allow the proper selection
of electrical apparatus to be
installed in that environment.
11. 1.The flammable materials that may be present;
2. The physical properties and characteristics of each
of the flammable materials;
3. The source of potential releases and how they can
form explosive atmospheres;
4. Prevailing operating temperatures and pressures;
5. Presence, degree and availability of ventilation
(forced and natural);
6. Dispersion of released vapours to below flammable
limits;
7. The probability of each release scenario.
12. Zone 0: An area in which an explosive gas
atmosphere is present continuously or for long
periods;
Zone 1: An area in which an explosive gas
atmosphere is likely to occur in normal
operation;
Zone 2: An area in which an explosive gas
atmosphere is not likely to occur in normal
operation and, if it occurs, will only exist for a
short time.
13. ZONE EXPLOSION LIMIT
ZONE 0 > 1000 h/year
