Thanks for the responses.
The remote location is an hour's drive from the 2 sites - Not quite Christchurch to Auckland but I would think the same design considerations would apply.
With regard to the conformity and electrical regs, these E Stops are used to trigger ESD code within the PLC. They aren't used for electrical or mechanical interlocking like they would in a workshop or production line.
Do you know if there are applicable regs for this scenario?
Thanks
If the remote location where you want the new "E-Stop" located is an hour away I wouldn't consider it an "E-Stop". I would imagine whatever the safety codes are in your location they probably would also not consider it an E-Stop either.
