Annex B (normative) Installation requirements for
pressurization
Specifies requirements on the design, construction, testing and marking of electrical apparatus for use in combustible dust atmospheres in which a protective gas (air or inert gas), maintained at a pressure above that of the external atmosphere, is used to prevent the entry of dust which might otherwise lead to the formation of a combustible mixture within enclosures which do not contain a source of combustible dust.
