When we think of fires, we probably picture petrol tankers, plastics, wood, & electrical switchboards.
Rarely do we think of DUST as a fire risk! Ask any grain-company or manufacturer of dusty goods & they’ll tell you differently. For example, fires & explosions in grain silos are quite common.

While reading the American NFPA website, I noted an article on ‘responding to motor vehicle accidents involving a Hybrid or Electric car’ : http://www.nfpa.org/publicJournalDetail.asp?categoryID=1966&itemID=46403
While not strictly related to fire protection, it does relate to our counterparts- the fire fighters. It’s also a reminder to everyone working in property services to be careful! Most equipment sold today has an electrical component that could cause electrocution- cars, fire alarm panels, fan-controls, sliding fire doors, pressure switches….. everything!
