Electrical fire prevention

Prevention of electrical fire

According to fire statistics, electrical fires account for nearly 40% of fire accidents, and the prevention of electrical fires is the number one disaster factor of fires. Heat generated by current (short circuit, overload, poor contact, poor heat dissipation, etc.) and sparks or arcs are the direct causes of fire and explosion accidents. Especially in the summer, when businesses and homes use a lot of electricity, the masses should be wary of electrical "getting hot".

1. Prevention of electrical fire

1. Reasonably choose electrical equipment and wires, do not run overloaded, and must not exceed the service life.

2. When installing switches, fuses or wires, avoid combustible materials and keep necessary fire distances from combustible materials.

3. Pay attention to the contact of the line or equipment connection, and maintain normal operation, so as to avoid poor connection or poor contact causing the equipment to overheat.

4. Strengthen the operation and management of equipment. Regular inspections, cleanings and maintenance are required to prevent insulation damage and short circuits caused by aging wires.

5. Ensure that the electrical equipment is well ventilated to ensure the heat dissipation effect.
