This document supplements and modifies the general requirements of IEC 60079-0 and the intrinsic safety standard IEC 60079-11. Where a requirement of this standard conflicts with a requirement of IEC 60079-0 or IEC 60079-11, the requirement of this standard takes precedence.
This document supplements IEC 60079-11, the requirements of which apply to apparatus used in intrinsically safe systems.
The installation requirements of Group II or Group III systems designed in accordance with this standard are specified in IEC 60079-14.
NOTE 2 Group I installation requirements are presently not provided in IEC 60079-14. Installation requirements for Group I are being considered.
