Summer is around the corner
It has been observed that during summer, the cases of fire are more, whether it is in manufacturing units, electrical substations, homes, or other working stations. Due to the temperature rise, the cases of fire are seen more. Constant running of machines, like AC, Plants, Computers, Engines, etc can be the source of fire because of more use, because of heat up things, etc. To avoid fires around us-
Be more vigilant, cautious, and watchful during the summer. Do not leave Kitchen, or the working places while running the burner or machines. Give Proper rest to running machines, Car Engines, etc so that temperature does not rise. Make sure that fire fighting systems remain operational, conduct mock drills, and check for loose wires, and joints in wires as there may be a spark in the loose connections and that may lead to fire. Electric Press and other electrical items are to be checked at regular intervals. Factories, working stations, and residences are to be double-checked if we are closing these units and going away. Remove combustible materials if stored around the heating places. Remove plastic and wooden articles from the working areas. Celluloid things, burning agarbatis could also be dangerous. Thatched structures, false ceilings, partitions, and adjoining buildings having more burning materials could be a source of danger. Be prepared for any kind of emergency. Keep your children away from hot surfaces and any danger points.
If the fire is detected and if it is a small one, do not panic and try to extinguish it, however, if it is a big one better to run away from fire and smoke as it could be dangerous, fire spreads at a very high speed, please take a safe place, do not use a lift during a fire, if possible close windows and doors behind you, raise alarm, inform and warn others also If you know the procedure of using fire extinguisher, then use it aim the nozzle at the base of fire, to open the pull safety pin first from the handle. Call the fire brigade and people around to help you. Mind it fire may cause you pain suffering and financial losses. Keep yourself and your assets protected with proper insurance also.
