In Section 18, the CEC requires that the zone method of hazardous area classification be used for all new installations. The code is not specific about the products used and permits both

The frequency distributions of temperatures over an eleven-year period were calculated for the surface, the bituminuous membrane, and the ceiling, considering the effects of air conditioning and insulation. Temperature hazard indexes for degradation of components at different localities can be derived, if the relevant climatic data are available.

We provide a model and derive sufficient conditions for systems that provide perfect protection. We give two generic constructions using secret sharing schemes and authentication codes

When considering the distribution of symmetric keys to secure the communication in such networks, the specific topology leads to security and performance requirements that are markedly distinct from those of the more widely-studied case of a planar network. We consider these requirements in detail, proposing a new measure for connectivity in one-dimensional environments. We show that, surprisingly, optimal results may be obtained through the use of extremely lightweight key predistribution schemes.

This is an important parameter when distinct difference configurations are used in the wireless sensor application, as this parameter describes the density of nodes that can be reached by a short secure path in the network. We provide upper and lower bounds for the kkk-hop coverage of a distinct difference configuration with mmm points, and exploit a connection with BhB_{h}Bh sequences to construct configurations with maximal kkk-hop coverage. We also construct distinct difference configurations that enable all small vectors to be expressed as the sum of two of the difference vectors of the configuration, an important task for local secure connectivity in the application.
