an important new publication from Technical Help to Exporters

Following several months of intensive research, Technical Help to Exporters (THE), the export advisory service of the British Standards Institution, has published a multinational survey on the technical requirements that affect the export of electrical equipment used in flammable atmospheres Each of the 17 countries is dealt with individually and each country section shows:-

1 which regulations govern the use of electrical equipment in flammable atmospheres; 2 how flammable substances and areas are classified compared with British and international classi.fications;

3 which methods of explosion protection and which construction and testing standards are in common use;

4 how certification can be obtained and whether UK or other certification is acceptable; 5 whether test reports from other recognised testing stations can ease the granting of national certification;

6 details of relevant documents and published material.

This 200-page survey covers Australia, Austria, Belgium, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany (FR) , Greece, Italy, Japan, the Netherlands, Norway, Portugal, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and the USA.

Electrical equipment for flammable atmospheres is published in a looseleaf binder and costs £60 to THE members and £80 to non-members.
