We have a project in asia for a fuel gas system. The complete electrical part shall be according to FM. What does this mean? Do we have to follow the NFPA 70 and NEC 500? Or is there anything else to be observed?
Thanks in advance.

Is around a gas pipeline (natural gas) a hazardous area according NFPA and to what distances is it located. I heard there could be something in the NFPA 497A? Is it correct?
Furthermore is this hazardous area just located around flanges etc. or around the complete pipe?
Thanks in advance
