General Reference Tables |
NEMA Standard Classification Codes for Flame Safety Control Enclosures |
NEMA 1— |
General Purpose. For indoor protection, where conditions are not unusually severe. |
NEMA 2— |
Driptight. Designed to exclude falling moisture or dirt. Particularly applicable to cooling rooms, laundries, etc., where condensation is prevalent. For indoor use. |
NEMA 3— |
Weather Resistant (weatherproof). For outdoor use; designed to withstand all normal exposure to natural elements. Controls mounted on pullout racks for easy access. With rain hood and weather seals. |
NEMA 4— |
Watertight. Withstands water pressure from l inch hose nozzle, 65 gallons per minute, from distance of not less than 10 feet for five minutes. Suitable for maritime applications, breweries, etc. |
NEMA 5— |
Dust-tight. Equipped with dust-tight gaskets. Suitable for mills and other high-dust atmospheres. |
NEMA 6— |
Submersible. For submerged operation under specified pressures and time. |
NEMA 7— |
Hazardous Locations, National Electrical Code Class l (circuit breaks in air). |
NEMA 8— |
Hazardous Locations, National Electrical Code Class l (circuit breaks immersed in oil). |
NEMA 9— |
Hazardous Locations, National Electrical Code Class 2. |
NEMA 10— |
Explosion-proof. Meets U.S. Bureau of Mines requirements for explosive atmospheres. |
NEMA 11— |
Acid or Fume Resistant. Provides for immersion of enclosed equipment in oil. |
NEMA 12— |
Industrial Use. Excludes oils, dust, moisture, to satisfy individual requirements. |
