8 Attachment C: NFPA Process Quick Reference Guide

9 New Process Quick Reference Guide For additional information on the Regulations visit: There are only three actions a TC can take at the First Draft (ROP) meeting: 1. Resolve a Public Input (no change to the document) 2. Create a First Revision (change to the document) 3. Create Committee Input Resolve Public Input (no change to the document) TC must provide a response (Committee Statement/CS) to ALL Public Input (proposal). CS for not doing what is suggested Sample Motion: I make a motion to resolve PI#_ with the following committee statement. Approval by meeting vote (simple majority). Not subject to Ballot. Create a First Revision (change to the document) TC must create a First Revision (FR) for each change they wish to make to the document, either using Public Input for the basis of the change or not using a Public Input for the basis. One or more Public Input can be considered for the FR. All Public Input requires a response TC can use a Public Input for basis i. Sample Motion: I make a motion to revise section using PI#_ as the basis for change. Approval by meeting vote (simple majority) and final approval through ballot. TC develops revision without a Public Input for basis i. Sample Motion: I make a motion to revise section as follows. Approval by meeting vote (simple majority) and final approval through ballot. First Revisions require a committee statement Committee Input TC may create a Committee Input (CI). This replaces the old system rejected Committee Proposals. CIs will get printed in the report but will not be balloted or shown as a change in the draft. CIs are used to solicit public comments and/or as a placeholder for the comment stage. i. Sample Motion: I make a motion to create a CI with a proposed revision to section as follows. Approval by meeting vote (simple majority). Not subject to ballot. Requires a committee statement to explain the intent of making a CI.

10 Comparison to Previous Process: PREVIOUS ACTIONS NEW PROCESS ACTIONS Sample Motion Accept or any variation of Accept (APA, APR, APP) on a public proposal 1) Committee generates a First Revision and Substantiation (CS) for change Rejected Public Proposal 2) Committee provides response (CS) to each PI that is associated with the revision Committee provides response (CS) to PI 1) I make a motion to revise section using PI#_ as the basis for change. 2) I make a motion to resolve PIs#_ through ## with the following statement I make a motion to resolve PI#_ with the following committee statement. Accepted Committee Proposal Rejected Committee Proposal Committee generates a First Revision and Substantiation (CS) for change Committee generates a Committee Input (CI) and reason (CS) for proposed change I make a motion to revise section as follows. Committee generates a statement for reason for change I make a motion to create a CI with a proposed revision to section as follows. Committee generates a statement for reason for CI. Notes: 1) All meeting actions require a favorable vote of a simple majority of the members present. 2) All First Revisions will be contained in the ballot and will require a 2/3 affirmative vote to confirm the meeting action. 3) Only the First Revisions will be balloted. PIs and CIs will be contained in the report but will not be balloted. 4) Comments may be submitted on all PIs, FRs and CIs

12 Attachment D: Electrical Wiring and Equipment for Explosive Areas

13 Electrical Wiring and Equipment for Explosive Areas Sheet 1of 3 1. The electrical rating of electrical devices and equipment located in each building, bay, and area that manufactures, processes, or stores explosive materials shall be documented and constructed according to the criteria below: 1.1. The Electrical Classification of each Operating Building, Bay, or Area and associated exterior process buildings or vessels shall be determined by the location management or its designated representative as directed herein Electrical equipment is defined as fittings, devices, fixtures and other apparatus, used as a part of an electrical installation Electrical equipment located in areas furnished with only wet or dry pipe sprinkler systems (fused sprinklers) are not required to be watertight. 2. An Electrical Classification document should be generated, maintained, and approved by location management or its designated representative. The document should indicate the approved electrical classification for each area, building or location within a building. 3. In areas requiring NEMA or IP rated enclosures/equipment, the rating of the equipment or enclosures should be listed and labeled by a certified independent testing laboratory Electrical enclosures/equipment with a NEMA or IP designation self-certified by the manufacturer shall be reviewed and approved by engineering and location management or its designated representative. Note: NFPA hazardous location rated equipment must be listed and labeled as required by NFPA Energetic Area 1 (EA-1) 4.1. Locations meeting the following criteria: o o Locations where direct contact with energetic materials (solid, uncured propellant, powder, etc.) is likely under normal or credible upset conditions. These areas may include: 4.2. General Requirements: Inside or in proximity of mixers, screeners, dryers Equipment or processes capable of generating small particle size materials, powders, granular materials, dry ingredients, propellant fines, or uncured propellant Electrical equipment should be constructed to prevent the entry of dust Where subject to wash down or deluge water, electrical equipment should be constructed to prevent the entry of water Heat generating equipment must have a temperature rating at least 100 degrees F below the auto-ignition temperature of the explosive material. Note: Examples of heat generating devices are motors, power supplies, motor controllers. Examples of non-heat generating devices not requiring compliance to the temperature requirement includes passive or simple electrical devices such as thermocouples and load cells This does not preclude the need for intrinsic safety barriers. Electrical equipment for EA-1 areas shall include at least one of the following:

14 Electrical Wiring and Equipment for Explosive Areas Sheet 2of 3 o NFPA Class II Division 1. (Where subject to washdown or deluge water, equipment should be purchased with a gasket or otherwise modified to prevent entry of water) Note: The listed and labeled temperature class from a Certified Independent Test Lab is still acceptable after implementing watertight modifications. o NEMA 4 or 6 with self certification in respect to the temperature rating as outlined above o IP 65, 66, 67, or 68 with self certification in respect to the temperature rating as outlined above. 5. Energetic Area 2 (EA-2) 5.1. Locations meeting one or more of the following criteria: o o o Locations where direct contact with energetic materials (solid, uncured propellant, powder, etc.) is possible, but unlikely, under credible upset conditions. Locations where direct contact with energetic materials (solid, uncured propellant, powder, etc.) is possible due to incremental buildup over time. Locations adjacent to EA-1 where no physical barrier exists General Requirements: Electrical equipment should be constructed to prevent the entry of dust Where subject to wash down or deluge water, electrical equipment should be constructed to prevent the entry of water Electrical equipment for EA-2 areas should include at least one of the following: o NFPA Class II Division 1. (Where subject to washdown or deluge water, equipment should be purchased with a gasket or otherwise modified to prevent entry of water) o NEMA 4 or 6 o IP 65, 66, 67, or Unrated (non-hazardous) portable or temporary equipment is permitted and shall be removed prior to the end of the operating shift and shall be inspected/cleaned prior to transport to another area Portable or temporary equipment remaining in an EA-2 area for longer than an operating shift shall comply with permanent installation requirements for EA Energetic Area 3 (EA-3) 6.1.
