Jet A Fuel

[chodge@cseama.com]

We are wiring a fuel site that will be holding and dispensing jet A fuel. I can not find this classification in the code book. From what I understand any material with a flash point 38 degrees celcius is not considered flammable and will not have to be wired under article 500. I am pretty sure Jet A fuel is basically the same thing as kerosene. Please help

I found one MSDS that lists it as a combustible liquid. Hope that helps.

Combustible and flammable are not synonyms, FWIW.

It is formulated to be combustible rather than flammable.
