The PIP ELEHA01:2011 standard is an engineering guide that provides a work process and guidance for determining electrical area classification. It outlines the steps and procedures for applying industry codes and standards to classify areas that may contain flammable liquids, gases, vapors, and combustible dust.

The standard emphasizes the importance of gathering necessary information and applying applicable codes and standards to develop a well-documented area classification. It specifically addresses the classification of areas with flammable substances but does not cover areas with ignitable fibers and flyings.
