Will the following statement be True or False?
In selecting a device for installation in a hazardous (classified) location, care should be used to make sure that it is suitable for the group or groups involved in the hazardous location.
True
While not an NEC requirement, many engineers consider it good practice to sectionalize long conduit runs by inserting seals not more than ? apart, depending on the conduit size, to minimize the effects of “pressure piling.”
50' to 100'
The ? of a liquid is the minimum temperature at which it gives off sufficient vapor to form an ignitible mixture with the air near the surface of the liquid or within the vessel used.

Sealing fittings are required where cables leave Class I, Division 1 locations and where they leave a Class I, Division 2 location if they are attached to process equipment that may cause a pressure of over ? to be exerted on a cable end.
6" of water
The ignition temperature of a combustible solid is influenced by the rate of air flow, rate of heating, and ? of the solid.

Will the following statement be True or False?
It is very unlikely that a device suitable for Class I locations would, when blanketed by dust, overheat in a Class II location, or that the presence of dust might interfere with safe operation in some other way.
False
What type of Hazards are present at a Class II location?
Combustible dust
What is this called?
EYD drain seal
Vapor density is the weight of a volume of ? vapor or gas (with no air present) compared to the weight of an equal volume of dry air at the same temperature and pressure.
pure
Will this statement be True or False?
Boundary-line mixtures of vapor or gas with air, which if ignited will just propagate flame, are known as the “lower and upper flammable limits” and are usually expressed in terms of percentage by density of gas or vapor in air.
False
What type of Hazard will be present at a Class III location?
Fibers and Flyings
Improperly packed or weak dams permit a loss of compound into conduit systems, which both wastes compound and makes ? seal.
an unsafe seal
Alternate increases and decreases in temperature and/or barometric pressure due to weather changes or due to the nature of the process carried on in the location where the conduit is installed will cause ? .
breathing
EYD drain seals provide continuous draining which prevents water accumulation, and range in size from ? inclusive.
1/2" to 4"
Will the statement be True or False?
It is very unlikely that a device suitable for Class I locations would, when blanketed by dust, overheat in a Class II location, or that the presence of dust might interfere with safe operation in some other way.
True
