Hazardous Location Protection
Civil infrastructure has inherent hazardous locations,
such as service garages, airport hangers and fueling
docks. The National Electrical Code
®
(NEC
®
) defines
hazardous locations as areas where the possibility
of explosion and fire is created by the presence
of flammable gases, vapors, dust, fibers or flyings.
To protect both your facility and your employees,
Thomas & Betts has several solutions to use
in hazardous locations that meet the electrical
codes and standards.
