Electrical Sombrero of Death is a dynamic and revealing presentation on Classified Electrical Areas.  We will answer all the questions about classified electrical in a distillery: where the areas are, when are classified electronics needed, special wring methods inside and outside the classified area.  We will dispel the myth that entire distilleries need to have “explosion proof” wiring and explain the proper terminology of Class, Division, and Group.  Finally, we will explain how it is true that 95% of all distilleries need not use classified electrical fixtures and wiring methods.  We will reveal how simple ventilation can save thousands of dollars in electrical upgrades.  We will explain what classified electrical equipment is and looks like for those rare locations where it actually required.
