Question 1949 Deck General

The correct answer is D) All of the above. On small passenger vessels, electrical equipment in spaces that contain gasoline powered machinery must be ignition protected, intrinsically safe, and explosion-proof. This requirement is outlined in the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Title 46, Section 111.105, which establishes the safety standards for electrical equipment in hazardous locations on vessels. The purpose of these safety measures is to prevent the ignition of flammable vapors, which could lead to a fire or explosion. The other answer choices are incorrect because they do not encompass the full scope of the regulatory requirement, which mandates that the electrical equipment meet all three safety criteria (ignition protection, intrinsic safety, and explosion-proof) to ensure the highest level of safety in gasoline-powered spaces.
