Sorry to be pedantic Kevin, because I know what you mean and I'm sure you fully understand the concepts.
The switches must have been flamability protected (Exd or Exe probably) because the intrinsically safe technique (Exp) limits energy in the protected area to levels incapable of igniting a hazardous atmosphere and therefore would not be suitable for lighting.
