wiring for class 1 div 1 environment
(OP)
Hi,
I have a question in regards to wiring in a class 1 division 1 environment. I currently have an equipment control panel rated for class 1 div 1 enviroment, and speculation has been raised about the suitability of the power cord. The plug on the cord is an abbleton class 1 div 1 rated plug, and the terminal/gland where the cord enters the panel is also class 1 div 1, but I'm not sure about the wire itself, since it is not the original wire. Does anyone know where I can find standards in regards to power cord suitability for Ex environments, or does anyone have any expertise to lend? Any help would be appreciated......

Also verify that the area is classified Division 1. This exists where the combustible vapor would normally be expected.
Typically a braided explosion-proof flexible fitting with seal fitting could be expected with hard-wired terminations inside the enclosure.
