I work at a natural gas production facility. I'm new to this industry and have questions about the use of electrical tools and equipment in these hazardous locations.
My question involves the following:
We regulary use extension cords in class 1 div. 1 & 2 locations. We plug into an explosion proof receptical with a short cord that has a GFCI. Then we plug our extension cords in for drills, laptop computers and other tools. Is this the industry standard practice when using extension cords? Any assistance with this issue would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!!
