This report was commissioned to determine when gas streams
containing hydrogen as a component should be treated as hydrogen
for the purposes of specifying electrical equipment. It has long
been recognised that the particular properties of hydrogen require
very specialised electrical equipment to be used to prevent
ignitions. Many industrial gas streams contain hydrogen mixed with
hydrocarbon gases. Engineers have to decide whether equipment
designed for hydrogen duty is needed (i.e. gas group IIC) or
whether equipment designed to the less stringent standards for
hydrocarbon gas groups IIA or IIB is suitable. This report provides
the justification for the cut-off value of hydrogen concentration
used when specifying hydrogen certified equipment (gas group IIC)
for gas mixtures, referenced in the IP Model Code of Safe Practice
Part 15: Area classification code for installations handling
flammable fluids*.
