Ten common sources of fire

Fire source is the origin of fire and the direct cause of combustion and explosion. Therefore, 10 fire sources should be well controlled to prevent fire, specifically:
1. All kinds of open flames that people ignite daily are the most common fire sources, which must be well controlled during use.
2. The electrical equipment used by enterprises and all walks of life can burn combustible gas and materials due to overload operation, short circuit, poor contact, lightning strike and electrostatic spark in nature, and must be safe and protected in use.
3. Dry firewood, wood and wood tools close to the stove or flue, combustible dust and fiber tightly gathered on the high-temperature steam pipeline; Paper and clothes beside high-power bulbs will burn if they are baked for too long.
4. In the process of refining and baking, due to the poor control of temperature or the failure of automatic control, it will catch fire, or even cause a fire.
5. The fried food or other substances are piled up without heat dissipation, or packed in bags, which will also gather heat and ignite. Heat dissipation must be paid attention to.
6. The heat treatment workpieces of the enterprise, which are stacked on the ground with oil stains or next to combustibles (such as wood), are easy to cause fire and should be stacked in a safe place.
7. Under the condition that there is neither open fire nor heat source, lignite, wet straw, wheat straw, cotton, rapeseed, bean cake, cotton yarn stained with animal and vegetable oil, gloves, clothes, wood chips, metal chips, polishing dust, and oil cloth that has been wiped off the equipment will also generate heat if they are piled together for a long time, which may cause spontaneous combustion when conditions are met, so they should be treated frequently.
8. When substances of different properties meet, they sometimes cause spontaneous combustion. If the oil contacts with oxygen, strong chemical action will occur, causing combustion.
9. Friction and impact. For example, the impact of iron tools on the cement floor will cause sparks, which can cause a fire when encountering combustibles.
10. Insulation compression and chemical thermal reaction can cause temperature rise and add combustibles to the ignition point.
