I have a customer that has purchasesd a Flameproof Zone 1 Ex d motor to be used in a class 1 div 1 area on a piece of waste water treatment equipment.
the end user is stating to use a IEC motor in an 1 D 1 area it must be a zone 0 rated motor per NEC 505.9. Q1 is this the correct code # to apply to this hazardous area applcation? Q 2 is their any US certified body UL or FM to certify this motor to be used in the 1 D 1 area. (side note) Electric Motors are not manufactured to operate in a Zone 0 class area.
