Can a 20KV power distribution room be built in the wastewater treatment plant?

Can a 20KV power distribution room be built in the wastewater treatment plant? How is the fire hazard level classified in wastewater treatment plants? I plan to build an independent power distribution room for waste treatment facilities; it should be fine to install a 20KV dry-type transformer there, right? It shouldn’t conflict with any regulations, right?

I think the regulation is for voltages up to 10KV; 20KV seems a bit high, right?

A power distribution room can be built, but relevant measures must be taken in accordance with the environmental explosion protection rating. The fire hazard level of the wastewater treatment plant is determined based on the composition of the wastewater;

It is also acceptable per the standards to install a 10KV transformer in our Class A workshop. At that time, a separate power distribution room will be built for the wastewater treatment; a 20KV transformer should work fine, right? There must be people who know. Otherwise, it wouldn’t make sense for me to use a higher voltage level

Build a separate power distribution room outside the explosion-proof area. It seems that waste gas, waste water, and waste solids also don’t qualify as explosion-proof areas.

It depends on the composition of your waste gases; if they contain oil or other flammable volatile substances, explosion prevention measures are necessary

I agree with what was said above; but whether explosion protection is needed or not, it’s fine as long as you don’t build in an explosion-proof area.

Creating a question separately definitely isn’t a big deal! It mainly depends on the distance.
