Which item is not included in the NEC hazardous location definition?

Flammable gases or vapors

Combustible dusts

Ignitable fibers

Water intrusion

The essential idea is recognizing environments that could ignite an atmospheric hazard. The NEC defines hazardous locations by presence of flammable gases or vapors, combustible dusts, or ignitable fibers. Water intrusion isn’t one of these designated hazard categories; it’s a moisture/ingress issue that can affect equipment, but it does not by itself create a NEC hazardous-location classification.
