AS/NZS 2290.1:2014

Current Date published:


Electrical equipment for coal mines - Introduction, inspection and maintenance - Part 1: For hazardous areas

This joint standard was developed in conjunction with Standards Australia (SA) who advised us that the standard was reviewed and resulted in a new Australian (AS) only standard AS 2290.1:2021. However this edition will remain current within New Zealand. For the most up to date Australian standards, visit www.standards.org.au.

Sets out requirements for the inspection and maintenance of electrical equipment designed for use in hazardous areas in and around underground coal mines. It provides general requirements that are fundamental to the safe use of electrical equipment in hazardous areas, and provides specific requirements for each type of explosion-protection technique. This standard is intended to be applied where there is a potential risk due to the presence of explosive gas, dust mixtures and combustible dust layers, and is part of a series of Standards on the maintenance and overhaul of electrical equipment used in association with underground mining machines.
