Highest Risk Items
Known U.S. / European Conflicts (6)
DESR 6055.09↔UK ER 2014· Explosives separation distancesSignificant Difference
UK uses HSE separation tables by hazard type; apply the more restrictive distance per exposure and document both.
DESR 6055.09↔SprengG· Explosives licensing and storagePartial
German storage groups map loosely to HD; host-nation licensing is required in addition to DDESB site plan.
DESR 6055.09↔2. SprengV· Storage separation distancesPartial
Compare Lagergruppe distances to DESR QD; use larger value.
NFPA 70↔IEC 60364· Low-voltage installationsPartial
Partial alignment; supplemental U.S. testing or documentation required.
NFPA 77↔IEC TS 60079-32-1· Static electricitySimilar
Requirements broadly equivalent; document equivalency in design analysis.
NFPA 70↔DIN EN ISO 13849-1· Enclosure ratingsSimilar
Requirements broadly equivalent; document equivalency in design analysis.
