How a webinar works

All EASA private webinars are live events in which the audio and video are streamed to your computer over the Internet. Prior to the program, you will receive a web link to join the meeting. 

The presentation portion of the webinar will last about 45 minutes, followed by about 15 minutes of questions and answers.

Requirements

  • Internet connection
  • Computer with audio input (microphone) and audio output (speakers) appropriate for your size group
  • TV or projector/screen

The Zoom webinar service EASA uses will ask to install a small plugin. Your computer must be configured to allow this in order to have full functionality. Please check with your IT department or company's security policy prior to scheduling a private webinar.

Private Webinars

EASA's private webinars are an inexpensive way to bring an EASA engineer into your service center, place of business or group meeting without incurring travel expenses or lost production time.

Explosion-proof motors need special attention

Explosion-proof motors need special attention

Cyndi Nyberg
Former EASA Technical Support Specialist

Motors that will be used in hazardous locations must meet a variety of special requirements. In these cases, if the motor is not properly specified and/or repaired there can be serious safety consequences.

Hazardous locations are defined as environments where explosive or ignitable vapors or dusts are present, or may become present. Explosion-proof motors are required to ensure that the external temperatures of the motor will not ignite the vapor or dust and also to ensure that any internal faults will be contained within the motor enclosure under all operating conditions.

Requirements for electrical installations in hazardous locations are covered in NFPA 70, the National Electrical Code (NEC).
