Electrical fire prevention and safety tips for buildings
From design to completion, the best electrical installations keep electrical fire prevention and safety top of mind. Schneider Electric offers the solutions and expertise that help put you ahead of potential problems.
HeatTag is a revolutionary and unique sensor, able to analyze gas and particles inside the switchboard to alert you before any smoke or insulator browning occurs.
Electrical fires cause an estimated $3 billion-plus of damage to non-residential structures in the United States and Europe every year - according to the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) and the European Fire Safety Alliance (EFSA), but the consequences extend much further. We provide products and software to help improve the way you design, install, and maintain electrical systems for optimal electrical fire prevention.
Help prevent an electrical fire in your installation
Learn how to go above and beyond electrical installation standards. Our complimentary electrical fire prevention guide considers the risk of fire caused by electrical currents that fall below overcurrent protection thresholds. It focuses on the latest fire safety solutions to help mitigate such hazards in both new and existing installations in commercial buildings.
Continuous thermal monitoring enhances condition-based maintenance programs by providing 24/7 thermal-risk detection and sending alerts when temperature exceeds predetermined limits. With strategically installed sensors, our continuous thermal monitoring solution can mitigate downtime, enhance safety, and even help reduce insurance premiums related to fire risks.
