Where in the cable route should the barrier strip in Intrinsically Safe applications be located?
The barrier strip should be located outside the hazardous area and mounted near the junction box, multiplexer, or monitoring system. When using single barrier strips, the common signal carrier is grounded to the barrier enclosure; and therefore, must be in close proximity to monitor ground to prevent ground loops.
