    This document provides recommendations for classifying locations for electrical installations at petroleum facilities classified as Class I, Division 1 and Division 2. It includes two figures showing examples of flowing well areas. Figure 39 shows a well in a non-enclosed, adequately ventilated area without a cellar or below grade sump. Figure 40 shows a well in a non-enclosed area with an inadequately ventilated cellar or below grade sump. The document provides guidance on classifying locations to ensure safety of electrical installations in hazardous petroleum areas.
