Electrical devices often produce sparks and heat through normal operation, which can pose a risk in hazardous environments. To mitigate this, techniques such as intrinsic safety are implemented to prevent these devices from becoming a source of ignition.  This article will clarify the concept of intrinsic safety, providing a clear definition and comparing it with alternative safety measures like flameproofing, to give a comprehensive understanding of how safety is maintained in potentially dangerous settings.
