Hello I am building a Class 2 division 1 group G facility and wanted to look into using I/S barriers for the manual pull stations circuits of a fire detection system. Reading NEC article 504 a pull station could be classified as simple apparatus, I realize that this would mean sepparating the wiring from the pull station from other non I/S signaling decvice inside the hazardous area. So the question is: if I use a barrier and keep the wiring separate, could I consider a NEMA 4X manual pull statation a "simple apparatus" as part of an I/S circuit, and avoid using more expensive explosion proof pull stations?
