Working with engineers from the Canadian petrochemical, oil and gas industries, Thomas & Betts then introduced the STAR TECK XP tting. With an easy-to-ll, integral sealing chamber and a disconnectable design requiring minimal cable prepatation, this tting became the benchmark for ease of installation in hazardous environments. A line of liquid and putty sealants was also developed at the same time, eliminating the need for the cement sealants used up to this point.

Teck Cable
Teck cable derived its name from one of its first users, the Teck-Hughes Gold Mines in Kirkland Lake, Ontario. Teck 90 is CSA Type designation. Trade designation of this cable is Armored Cable. Teck cables up to 5,000 volts working potential are manufactured in accordance with CSA Standard C22.2 No. 131 and are provided with a bare ground conductor and an optional outer jacket. Depending on phase conductor insulation, the cables are designated as Teck 90 (X-LINK) when insulation is cross-linked polyethylene and Teck 90 (EP) when insulation is ethylene propylene. Both cables are rated for 90C service (dry location) and 75C (wet locations). Teck cable suitable for installation down to minus 40 is marked Teck 90 (X-LINK) minus 40 or Teck 90 (EP) minus 40. Over 5,000 volts working potential Teck cables are manufactured in accordance with IPCEA standards and are certified by CSA. Cables are provided with or without ground wire as required. Teck cables with outer jacket may be used for exposed or concealed wiring in wet or dry locations, indoors/outdoors and in corrosive environments. Teck cables are suitable for use in ventilated, non-ventilated and ladder type cable
troughs, in ventilated flexible cable ways in both dry and wet locations. Teck cable with outer jacket is suitable for direct earth burial and for Class II Division 2, Class III, Divisions 1 and 2 hazardous locations per Canadian Electric Code. Some of the features of Teck cable are its flexibility and ease of installation. Absence of dead air space within cable increases heat transfer and minimizes condensation. Overall protective covering provides good environmental protection. Bend radius for permanent training during installation usually varies between 7 to 12 times the cable diameter depending on cable construction and manufacturers recommendations. Larger radius bends are required for other conditions. Section 12-3028 of the Canadian Electric Code requires that the terminating fittings used must provide adequate strain relief to terminal connections and ensure electrical continuity without injury to non-metallic sheath. Continuity is mandatory whether or not the armor is used as a grounding conductor. Except for dry locations free from corrosive atmosphere, the non-metallic jacket is not permitted to be stripped back to a point where armor is
exposed after installation. Where single conductor cables carrying 200 amps or more enter metal boxes through separate openings, certain precautions are required to prevent overheating of the metal by induction. Use of non-ferrous or non-metallic box connectors, locknuts and bushings and installation of non-magnetic panel inserts is suggested in the code. Please refer to the following for further details and complete information: 1. CEC Section 12Wiring Methods CEC Section 4Conductors 2. CSA C22.2 No. 131... Safety Standard for Type Teck Cable 3.

Metal-Clad Cable and Aluminum-Sheathed Cable
Metal Clad Cable Type MC is a factory assembly of one or more conductors, each individually insulated and enclosed in a metallic sheath of interlocking tape, or a smooth or corrugated tube. Metal Clad Cable Type MC is rated for use up to 5,000 volts. The National Electrical Code permits use of metallic sheath as an equipment grounding conductor. Metal Clad Cables are available with a variety of phase conductor insulations such as crosslinked polyethylene, and silicone rubber ethylene propylene, depending on rated temperature of conductors and working potential. Metallic sheath can be of galvanized steel, aluminum, copper or bronze. A special outer covering such as PVC or Neoprene over metallic sheath is usually provided for environmental protection. Metal clad cable is not permitted in locations where it could be subject to physical damage. Metal clad cable can be used exposed, concealed, in cable tray, in any approved raceway, and, with minor exceptions, in hazardous locations. Type MC cable can also be used for services, feeders, branch circuits, power, lighting, control and signal circuits. Use of metal clad cable is permitted in wet locations, or where exposed to destructive corrosive conditions or directly buried in earth,
concrete or exposed to cinder fills, strong chlorides, caustic alkalis, vapors, chlorine or hydrochloric acids provided the construction of cable, the conductors within the metallic sheath, the metallic sheath and protective cover over metallic sheath comply with requirements enumerated in Sec. 334-3 of the National Electrical Code. Bend radius restrictions are dependent on the size of the cable and the type of sheath, i.e. smooth, interlocked armor, corrugated sheath or shielded conductors and varies from 7 to 15 times cable external diameter. NEC Article 330 requires that approved fittings be used for termination. Where single-conductor cables carrying alternating current enter a ferrous metal box or enclosure, procedures described in NEC Section 300-20 must be followed to reduce effects of heating due to induced currents. These procedures include recommended arrangements of conductors, cutting of slots in metal between individual conductor holes, passing of conductors through insulating walls, or use of non-magnetic aluminum sheathed cable and aluminum terminating fittings.

Classes
The Canadian Electrical Code (C.E.C.), Part I, Section 18 - Hazardous Locations, identifies three classes of hazardous locations: Class I - Gas and Vapour Environments Class II - Dust Environments Class III -Fibers and Flyings Environments The 1998 revisions to the C.E.C. affect only Class I - Gas and Vapour Environments. Hazardous location is defined by the C.E.C. as premises, buildings or parts thereof in which there exists the hazard of fire or explosion due to highly flammable gases and/or flammable, volatile liquid mixtures that are manufactured, used or stored in other than the original containers. This definition can include combustible dust and easily ignitable fibers that are likely to be present in sufficient quantities to produce an explosive mixture.
The following abbreviations are used in this catalogue: HLA Hazardous Location Area OLA Ordinary Location Area

Zone 1
Zone 2 Division 2
normally confined within closed containers or closed systems from which they can escape only as a result of accidental rupture or breakdown of the containers or systems or the abnormal operation of the equipment by which the liquids or gases are handled, processed or used; or vi. explosive gas atmospheres are normally prevented by adequate ventilation but which may occur as a result of failure or abnormal operation of the ventilation system; or vii. the location is adjacent to a Class I, Zone 1 location from which explosive gas atmospheres could be communicated, unless such communication is prevented by adequate positive-pressure ventilation from a source of clean air, and effective safeguards against ventilation failure are provided.
All explosion proof equipment is clearly identified by either: a Class I Location marking (Division System); or a Type of protection d marking (IEC Zone System).
Internal Explosion
Hot or burning gases Cooled Escaping Gas
This diagram illustrates the escape paths of gases generated by an explosion within an electrical enclosure. When an explosion occurs, hot or burning gases pass through the threaded joint or StarTeck XP flame path and must make a number of changes in direction. These changes in direction cool the hot gases to the point that they are too
cool to ignite the surrounding atmosphere once they escape. Other escape paths for the hot gases include the enclosure cover flange and the interstices between the strands of wires entering the enclosure.
