Connection of explosion-proof conduit to distribution box

Home / Connection of explosion-proof conduit to distribution box

Conduit system requires that all boxes are manufactures with "Ex de" type of protection and the entries must be made through a conical threaded hole. Seven workers vanished after a deafening blast tore through a California fireworks facility last July – a chilling reminder of why explosion-proof electrical equipment installation isn't just regulation, it's life insurance. Conduit installation is certainly the most suitable for applications in all dangerous areas where, in addition to the presence of explosive atmosphere, the problem is to operate in severe weather conditions and where mechanical protection of cables has a particular importance for safety. Proper installation, wiring, and usage are critical to ensuring the safety and functionality of these systems. Choosing how cables enter an explosion-proof distribution box is one of those decisions that looks straightforward on paper but gets complicated fast once you factor in the actual site conditions.
