UL 121201:2019-08-26 Nonincendive Electrical Equipment for Use in ClassI and l, Division 2 and Class , Divisions 1 and 2 Hazardous (Classified) Locations

UL 121201:2019-08-26 Nonincendive Electrical Equipment for Use in ClassI and l, Division 2 and Class , Divisions 1 and 2 Hazardous (Classified) Locations. 1.1.1 The purpose of UL 121201 is to provide minimum requirements for the design, construction, and marking of electrical equipment or parts of such equipment for use in Class I and Class II, Division 2 and Class Ill, Divisions 1 and 2 hazardous (classified) locations. 1.1.2 This equipment, in normal operation, is not capable of causing ignition of the surrounding atmosphere under the conditions prescribed in this standard, although the equipment may contain electronic components used in an incendive circuit and may also have field wiring that is an incendive circuit. 1.1.3 In addition, it is the intent of this document to establish uniformity in test methods for determining the suitability of the equipment and associated circuits and components as they relate to potential ignition of a specific flammable gas or vapour-in-air mixture, combustible dust, easily ignitible fibers, or flyings. 1.2 Applicable to Class I and II, Division 2 and Class Ill, Divisions I and 2 locations 1.2.1 This standard applies only to equipment, circuits, and components for use in Class I and II, Division 2 and Class Ill, Divisions 1 and 2 hazardous (classified) locations as defined in the National Electrical Code® (NEC®) ANSI/N FPA 70 or in the Canadian Electrical Code, Part I (CE Code, Part I) CSA C22.1. NOTE I Some equipment designed for use in unclassified locations is permitted by the NEC® or CE Code, Part I for installation in Division 2 locations. The judgment of acceptability for the installation would be determined by the authority having jurisdiction. Such equipment would not have the hazardous location marking or documentation described in this standard. It is anticipated that such equipment would comply with the other requirements in this standard and that the determination of compliance is elementary (e.g., a nonarcing instrument inside a Type 4 or Type 12 enclosure used in a Class II, Division 2 location).
