One of the main functions of the state as a whole andA certain organization in particular is the provision of fire safety, that is, protection against fires. For this purpose, a complex of various measures is carried out, there are special requirements with respect to many objects, buildings, enterprises and even cities. Unfortunately, it is not possible to completely avoid fires, however, fire safety requirements make it possible to minimize the risk of fire.
Today many documents are developed,Regulating this activity, as well as practically at all enterprises and organizations, there are specially trained people who are responsible for such precautionary measures. Thus, fire safety requirements with respect to the substances and materials from which various products are made, suggest that the manufacturer should indicate how flammable or combustible the item is. This is spelled out in the Federal Law of the corresponding profile.
It should be noted that the main requirement forPreventing fire is the absence of an ignition source near a combustible material. This principle is always laid down in the development of requirements for fire safety in any enterprise or facility. However, it is not always possible that in the production process there are no potentially dangerous sources of ignition and a combustible medium present. In such cases it is necessary to secure the equipment as well as the room in which it is located as much as possible. To do this, use the emergency alert buttons, automatic shutdown, a variety of alarms, etc.
It should be noted that accidental prevention measuresfires depend on the object itself. Thus, the fire safety requirements for electrical installations will differ significantly from the recommendations given for residential buildings. As a result, there are several categories of premises according to the degree of danger, from those that carry a potential threat to relatively safe ones.
There are several hazards thatmay cause material damage in case of fire. These are open flames and sparks from it (especially indoors), smoke, toxic products of combustion, etc. Also low oxygen concentration in the air, a blast wave are dangerous. Requirements of fire safety in premises provide for isolation of electrical wiring in order to avoid short circuit, installation of RCD and automatic fuses. Wooden furniture should not stand next to electric or gas stoves. In the bathrooms and on the external walls of the building sockets must be isolated from moisture.
It should be noted that the requirements of the firesafety is governed by several federal laws and fire regulations. In case of violation of certain rules, the person responsible for this activity may be punished in accordance with Russian law. If there is no special employee, then the head of the organization is responsible for the violations. Such measures can make prevention more effective.
Currently, any institutions, and especiallysocially important (schools, hospitals, factories, etc.) must be equipped with a special alarm system, and in each separate room (office, ward, etc.), as well as the corridor, reach. After all, if you start to extinguish the fire from the first minutes, then it is quite possible that it will be possible to prevent it from spreading. Special requirements are imposed on the materials of which the building is built. It is recommended that flammable structures be treated with a special solution, which subsequently will not allow a fire to quickly start.
