Emergency measures for fires caused by aging wires in lighting electrical ready boards
The aging of wires in lighting electrical ready boards is an important hidden danger that can cause fires. Once a fire occurs, the following emergency measures are crucial:
Immediately cut off the power supply: If the wires are found to be aging and catching fire, the primary task is to quickly cut off the power supply to prevent the spread of the fire and the risk of electric shock.
Use appropriate fire extinguishing equipment: Under the premise of ensuring safety, use dry powder fire extinguishers or carbon dioxide fire extinguishers for initial fire extinguishing, and avoid using water or other potentially conductive fire extinguishing agents.
Alarm and evacuation: Immediately call the fire alarm number and notify relevant personnel to evacuate according to the fire plan to ensure personal safety.
Maintain ventilation: If conditions permit, open doors and windows for ventilation, which can help reduce the accumulation of smoke and toxic gases.
Cooperate with professional rescue: Upon arrival, firefighters should fully cooperate with them to carry out firefighting and rescue work.
Post inspection and rectification: After the fire is extinguished, the aging condition of the wires should be thoroughly inspected, the aging wires should be replaced in a timely manner, and the electrical ready board should be comprehensively inspected to ensure safety.
Strengthen prevention: Regularly conduct wire and circuit inspections, select qualified wire products, avoid using electrical appliances in humid environments, install electrical fire alarms, and improve household electricity safety awareness.
Through these emergency measures, fires caused by aging wires in lighting electrical ready boards can be effectively dealt with, ensuring personal and property safety.
