5.4 Unclassified Locations.
5.4.1 Experience has shown that the release of ignitible mixtures from some operations and apparatus is so infrequent that area classification is not necessary. For example, it is not usually necessary to classify the following locations where combustible materials are processed, stored, or handled:
(1) Locations that have adequate ventilation, where combustible materials are contained within suitable, well maintained, closed piping systems
(2) Locations that lack adequate ventilation, but where piping systems are without valves, fittings, flanges, and similar accessories that may be prone to leaks
(3) Locations where combustible materials are stored in suitable containers
