Frequently Asked Questions
What is classified as a hazardous area in electrical work?
A hazardous area is any location where flammable gases, vapours, dusts or fibres may be present in concentrations that could ignite. Common examples include fuel storage sites, paint shops, grain silos and manufacturing plants. These environments require strict safety design, equipment and installation protocols to minimise ignition risks.
Electricians must follow AS/NZS 60079 standards and be trained to identify zones correctly before working or installing systems.
Do hazardous area installations require special certification?
Yes. Installations in hazardous areas must comply with national safety standards and be handled by electricians who are trained and certified in hazardous area classifications. This includes understanding zone ratings, selecting compliant materials, and producing detailed documentation.
The work is then subject to inspection and verification by an accredited auditor or engineer. Without these steps, systems may be non-compliant — posing legal, safety and insurance issues.
What industries typically need hazardous area electrical work?
Industries with volatile materials or processes often need hazardous area electrical work. These include chemical processing, fuel storage, waste management, food and beverage manufacturing, agriculture, and timber operations.
Any industry where dust, vapours or gases could ignite may require zoning and specialised electrical systems to operate safely. Compliance reduces the risk of fires, explosions and system failures — all of which can be catastrophic in the wrong conditions.
