What are the ways to prevent cable fires?

Methods to prevent cable fires

1. To ensure the construction quality, especially the production quality of the cable head must strictly meet the specified requirements.

2. Strengthen the monitoring of cable operation to avoid overload operation.

3. Test the cable as scheduled, and deal with any abnormality found in time.

4. Keep the cable duct dry to prevent the cable from being damp, causing insulation loss and short circuit.

5. Regularly clean the dust on the cable to prevent the dust from burning and causing the cable to catch fire.

6. Strengthen the regular inspection and maintenance of the switch and protection of the cable circuit to ensure its action.

7. When laying the cable, keep a sufficient distance from the heat pipe, the control cable is not less than 0.5 meters; the power line is not less than 1 m. Power cables and control cables should be in slot shape, separated by layers, and the layers should not be overlapped. For places that do not meet the regulations, the cables should take flame retardant and insulation measures.

8. Install fire alarm devices to detect fire in time and prevent cables from catching fire.
