The paper aims to address the importance of inspection and maintenance of electrical equipment used in liquefied petroleum gas car filling stations. In order to maintain in operation the electrical equipment in environments with potentially explosive atmospheres under harsh conditions, the personnel involved in inspection and maintenance activities must be trained in such a way as to know the operation of these electrical equipment with different types of protection and how to perform their maintenance. Inspection...

The evaluation of explosion-proof electrical equipment for certification is particularly important given the risk of explosion and must be minimized. This in order to ensure the safety of life, health of workers, to prevent damage to goods and the environment when they meet the essential security requirements at European level. Directive 2014/34 / EU states that equipment used in explosive atmospheres must be designed to operate without endangering the environment for which it is intended. This paper deals with th...

Most of the equipment operating in potentially explosive atmospheres in oil and gas industry is represented by electric motors, which in most situations act on various other elements (e.g. pumps, valves, fans etc.). Evaluation of explosion-proof protected electrical equipment in scope of certification is extremely important considering the risk of explosion that has to be minimized in order to ensure life safety and health of workers and to prevent damaging of property and the environment, as well as free movement...
