Introduction

GB (GB/T) 3836 "Explosive Atmospheres" aims to establish the basic technical requirements for equipment used in explosive atmospheres and related aspects of their application. It covers the design, manufacture, inspection, selection, installation, inspection, maintenance, repair and site classification of equipment for explosive atmospheres. The form of some standards includes but is not limited to the following parts. --- Part 1.General requirements for equipment; --- Part 2.Equipment protected by flameproof enclosure "d"; --- Part 3.Equipment protected by increased safety "e"; --- Part 4.Equipment protected by intrinsic safety type "i"; --- Part 5.Equipment protected by a positive pressure enclosure "p"; --- Part 6.Equipment protected by liquid immersion type "o"; --- Part 7.Equipment protected by sand-filled mold "q"; --- Part 8.Equipment protected by "n" type; --- Part 9.Equipment protected by encapsulation type "m"; --- Part 11.Test methods and data for classification of properties of gases and vapors; --- Part 12.Test methods for characteristics of combustible dust materials; --- Part 13.Repair, overhaul, restoration and modification of equipment; --- Part 14.Classification of places with explosive gas atmospheres; --- Part 15.Specifications for design, selection and installation of electrical equipment; --- Part 16.Specification for inspection and maintenance of electrical installations; --- Part 17.Equipment protected by pressurized rooms "p" and artificially ventilated rooms "v"; --- Part 18.Intrinsically safe electrical systems; --- Part 20.Equipment with isolated components or combined protection levels; --- Part 21.Application of the production quality management system for explosion-proof products; --- Part 22.Protective measures for optical radiation equipment and transmission systems; --- Part 23.Class I EPLMa equipment for use in gas and/or coal dust environments; --- Part 24.Equipment protected by special type "s"; --- Part 25.Requirements for process seals between flammable process fluids and electrical systems; --- Part 26.Guide to electrostatic hazards; --- Part 27.Electrostatic hazard test; --- Part 28.Basic methods and requirements for non-electrical equipment for explosive atmospheres; --- Part 29.Non-electrical equipment for explosive atmospheres. structural safety type "c", controlled ignition source type "b", liquid immersion type "k"; --- Part 30.Equipment and components for explosive atmospheres in underground mines; --- Part 31.Equipment protected by dust ignition proof enclosure "t"; --- Part 32.Electronically controlled spark time-limited intrinsically safe systems; --- Part 33.Equipment for severe working conditions; --- Part 34.Complete equipment; --- Part 35.Classification of places with explosive dust atmospheres; --- Part 36.Electrical safety devices for controlling potential ignition sources in explosion-proof equipment. Explosion-proof equipment is an important equipment used in explosive environments. The inspection and maintenance of electrical devices in use are of great importance to protecting the life of explosion-proof equipment. The explosion-proof integrity of the cycle is crucial. In terms of the standardization of these activities, my country formulated GB 3836.16-2006 in.2006. It was subsequently revised in.2017 and 2022 respectively. In order to further ensure the explosion-proof safety of explosion-proof equipment in application and standardize the inspection and maintenance activities of electrical equipment in explosive environments, This standard will be revised and converted into a mandatory national standard after revision. Use of this document requires understanding of the following. Electrical devices in hazardous locations have specially designed features to make them suitable for operation in such environments. It is important for the owner to maintain the integrity of the features of these devices through inspection, maintenance and management throughout their life cycle. Therefore, this document sets out details of the initial inspection and the following ongoing inspections. a) subsequent periodic inspections; b) Continuous supervision by professional personnel. Maintenance may also be required when necessary. Proper operation of hazardous location installations is not intended and should not be construed as maintaining the integrity of the above characteristics.
