IEEE 1673-2015

This document provides specific requirements for field installed sealing between a pressurized system (stream) containing flammable or combustible process fluids which is connected directly or indirectly to an electrical system where a failure could allow the migration of process fluids directly into the electrical system. The basic requirements for electrical safety are not specifically addressed by this standard. The effects of the loss of containment of the process system in terms of risk to the environment and/or personnel health and safety are also not addressed by this document.
