METHOD OF DETECTING PRE-FIRE SITUATIONS ARISING AS A RESULT OF ELECTRICAL CIRCUIT FAULTS

摘要

The present invention relates to the field of fire and electric power safety, in particular to methods for detection of pre-fire situations arising from local overheating of electrical equipment, and is intended to prevent fires arising from electrical wiring faults, in particular, faults in wiring devices. The method is based on measuring the content of low-boiling substances in the atmosphere of the protected room, which are enclosed in capsules with an opening temperature in the range of 80-200 ° C, fixed on current-carrying parts, and released into the external environment when these capsules are opened by heating the mentioned parts to the appropriate temperature. The technical result of the claimed solution is to increase the probability of detecting a pre-fire situation at an early stage.
