Revision Standard - Superseded. Specific testing requirements for qualifying electrical resistance heating cables and heating devices for use in industrial applications, as well as a basis for electrical and thermal design, are included in this standard. Unclassified applications and explosive atmosphere applications that use both Divisions and Zone methods of classification are included.
This standard provides requirements for the testing, design, installation, and maintenance of electrical resistance trace heating in general industries as applied to pipelines, vessels, pretraced and thermally insulated instrument tubing and piping, and mechanical equipment. The electrical resistance trace heating is in the form of series trace heaters, parallel trace heaters, and surface heating units. In this standard, the terms hazardous (classified) locations and potentially flammable atmospheres refer to the same conditions. The requirements also include test criteria to determine the suitability of these heating devices utilized in industrial applications as applied in unclassified (ordinary) and hazardous (classified) locations.
The provisions of this standard should ensure that process, fluid, or material temperatures are maintained and provide electrical, thermal, and mechanical durability to the trace heating system, such that in normal use, its performance is reliable and poses no danger to the user or surroundings. This standard is to serve as a complementary document to the current version of those national and international standards addressing electrical resistance trace heating.
