Explosive atmospheres - Part 45: Electrical ignition systems for internal combustion engines
IEC 60079-45:2025 is intended to enhance the safety of personnel by providing minimum requirements for electrical ignition systems for spark-ignited reciprocating internal combustion engines, parts of which provide Equipment Protection Level (EPL) Gc.
This document provides minimum construction and test requirements, in addition to manufacturer installation and maintenance recommendations, for the safe operation of ignition systems and components for spark-ignited reciprocating internal combustion engines providing EPL Gc for equipment Group IIB+H2, IIB or IIA. These requirements apply to systems rated for normal operation with secondary voltages less than or equal to 60 kV.
This document applies only to the ignition systems or the individual ignition system components used on reciprocating internal combustion engines that are stationary when in operation and mobile machinery where the internal combustion engine can be a potential source of ignition. Applications addressed by the scope of this document include but are not limited to:
This document does not apply to:
This document supplements and modifies the general requirements of IEC 60079-0 and the requirements of ISO/IEC 80079-41. Where a requirement of this document conflicts with IEC 60079-0 or ISO/IEC 80079-41, the requirement of this document takes precedence.
