Merge with Intrinsically safe - I agree that the two articles should be merged; they are about the same subject. The main article should be Intrinsic safety as that is the name of the subject. "intrinsically safe" is an adjectival clause to describe equipment that is intrinsically safe. Canthusus 14:45, 30 May 2007 (UTC)
A general introductory article on IS can be found here: http://www.ronan.com/artofis.pdf ,however the writer of this article would need to be contacted before it could be listed. The engineering page IEE has articles as well on this subject: http://ieeexplore.ieee.org/search/freesearchresult.jsp?history=yes&queryText=%28intrinsic+safety%29. I would be happy to do some work on this page as I have had 10 years experiance as a testing officer for Intrinsic Safety Equipment. [K.

The two articles, Intrinsic safety and Intrinsically safe should be merged, providing the useful information in both articles is saved. (A. Carty 19:50, 27 October 2007 (UTC))
Agreed, as they seem to be two articles about the same thing. --75.165.120.11 (talk) 22:50, 31 December 2007 (UTC)
Johnatweston (talk) 14:37, 4 January 2008 (UTC) I agree that these 2 sections should be merged as they cover the same ground. The section should be titled "intrinsic safety" to match the title of the British Standard, IEC 60079-11, that covers the subject.
