What type of hazard does HERO unsafe classification specifically address?

The HERO unsafe classification specifically addresses the hazard related to electromagnetic exposure leading to detonation. HERO stands for "Hazards of Electromagnetic Radiation to Ordnance," emphasizing how electromagnetic fields can potentially trigger detonation of explosive devices. This is particularly critical in environments where ordnance may be present and operable electronic equipment could emit electromagnetic radiation, which can inadvertently ignite explosives or cause them to detonate. Understanding and mitigating HERO hazards is essential for ensuring the safety of personnel and equipment during operations that involve explosives.
