According to FM's statistics, electrical equipment accounts for more than 30% of fires. They represent the main source of ignition in the industrial and commercial world. Most of these losses can be avoided through rigorous preventive maintenance of the key electrical equipment for the activity: transformers and circuit breakers. Often, good housekeeping and appropriate risk segregation also help limit the damage. What are the main causes of an electrical fire? Are there more favourable environments for fire starts than others? What are the preventive maintenance points or tools that can prevent the outbreak of these fires?
We will answer these questions in this webinar to help you better understand which electrical equipment is most at risk from fire and what the key points of preventive maintenance are to reduce the likelihood of such a disaster.
The session will be a mixture of interactive presentations and discussions.
During the webinar, you’ll discover:
- The most common causes of fire on electrical equipment;
- The best preventive maintenance procedures to avoid fires and production stoppages;
- The need for preventive electrical maintenance on key equipment, including infrared thermography and transformer oil screening.
