Hi,
I am new to working with hazardous area instrumentation and control. For my current project, we have all the process equipment, handling flammable liquids in Zone 1 hazardous area. And the PLC (with IS barriers) is in a safe area.
For this arrangement I have worked out my intrinsically safe sensors and transmitters and PLC/barriers. What I would like to know is what kind of cable I use for connecting the sensors and barriers?
Using a shielded armored cable (not planned for any conduits) for this is correct?
Awaiting suggestions and insights.
Thanks in advance,
MD
