Are Fire Protection Companies Meeting AS1851-2012 Section H2.2 Requirements? To my connections in the fire protection industry, I have a question regarding AS1851-2012 Section H2.2, specifically about compliance with Section 13 related to Mechanical Services Section 13 Compliance requires: (a) Relevant mechanical services trades qualifications from a recognized technical institution. How many fire protection companies out there have suitably qualified mechanical technicians completing these maintenance tasks? Or are these tasks simply being signed off without recognizing the necessity for a qualified mechanical technician? Additionally: How many fire technicians are genuinely capable of identifying early bearing failure for example. How many companies are informing their clients that they can facilitate the AS1851 requirements while merely ticking and flicking the Section 13 requirements? It's concerning to see some companies are bypassing these critical requirements, potentially compromising the integrity and safety of the systems in place. This should be a wake-up call for the industry to engage mechanical contractors with the appropriate expertise to ensure compliance. What changes are you making or have already implemented to address these requirements? Looking forward to your insights!

ELECTRICAL SAFETY ON THE JOB SITE: 11 WAYS TO BUILD IT SAFE Everyone on the Job site is at risk. Electrocutions is the 3rd leading cause of workers related death for construction workers. Ensuring electrical safety on a job site is critical to preventing accidents and ensuring the well-being of workers. Here are 11 ways to enhance electrical safety: 1. Conduct Regular Safety Training: Ensure that all workers are trained in electrical safety practices and understand the hazards associated with electrical equipment and installations. 2. Use Ground Fault Circuit Interrupters (GFCIs): Install GFCIs on all 120-volt, single-phase, 15- and 20-ampere receptacles to prevent electrical shocks. 3. Inspect Tools and Equipment: Regularly inspect all electrical tools and equipment for damage or wear. Ensure that damaged tools are repaired or replaced immediately. 4. Implement Lockout/Tagout Procedures: Establish and enforce lockout/tagout procedures to ensure that electrical equipment is de-energized and properly locked and tagged before maintenance or repair. 5. Maintain Proper Grounding: Ensure all electrical systems are properly grounded. This helps prevent electrical shocks and ensures a path of least resistance for electrical currents. 6. Use Insulated Tools: Workers should use insulated tools when working on or near live electrical equipment to reduce the risk of electrical shock. 7. Follow Proper Wiring Practices: Ensure that all electrical wiring meets local and national electrical codes. Use the correct gauge of wire and avoid overloading circuits. 8. Wear Appropriate Personal Protective Equipment (PPE): Workers should wear appropriate PPE, such as rubber gloves, insulating mats, and safety glasses when working with or near electrical equipment. 9. Keep Work Areas Dry: Water and electricity are a dangerous combination. Ensure that all electrical equipment is kept away from water sources and that work areas remain dry. Including body wears. 10. Label Electrical Panels and Equipment: Clearly label all electrical panels, circuit breakers, and equipment to ensure workers can easily identify circuits and components. 11. Establish Emergency Procedures: Develop and communicate emergency procedures for electrical accidents. Ensure that first aid kits and fire extinguishers are readily available, and workers know how to use them. By implementing these practices, you can create a safer work environment and minimize the risk of electrical accidents on the job site.

5 safety reasons to make the switch to Non-Intrusive Pig Signallers! 💡 1. No Leak Hazards – Intrusive pig signallers require pipe penetrations, creating potential leak paths.  Non-intrusive signallers eliminate this risk. 2. Improved Worker Safety – Intrusive signaller maintenance exposes field technicians to pressure-related and hazardous material risks.  Non-intrusive signallers require minimal technician exposure, as they can be easily removed from hazardous areas for maintenance. 3. No Pressure Concerns – Intrusive signallers involve potential pressure retention issues.  Non-intrusive signallers operate without pressure retention, eliminating this safety concern. 4. Safety Certification – Non-intrusive signaller enclosures are rated and clearly marked for safety in their operating environment by independent third-party organisations, ensuring compliance with safety standards. 5. Remote Monitoring – Non-intrusive signallers offer local and remote indication of pig passage, eliminating the need for field technicians to physically access the area, further reducing potential exposure to hazards. Switching to non-intrusive signallers enhances the safety of your employees, processes and the surrounding communities.  It’s that simple!

An electrical arc flash mock drill (sometimes referred to as an electrical arc flash or electric shock drill) is a planned safety exercise designed to simulate an electrical accident scenario. It ensures that workers and emergency response teams are prepared to handle electrical incidents effectively and safely. Below is a general framework for conducting an electrical flash mock drill: Objective • Assess preparedness to handle electrical accidents. • Familiarize workers with safety protocols for electrical hazards. • Test the effectiveness of emergency response plans and PPE usage. Steps to Conduct an Electrical Flash Mock Drill 1. Planning the Drill • Define the Scenario: • Example: A worker experiences an arc flash or electric shock while performing maintenance on an electrical panel. • Set Goals: • Test response time, first aid knowledge, and evacuation procedures. • Select Participants: Include electricians, maintenance staff, and emergency response teams. 2. Preparing the Area • Choose a Safe Location: Ensure the area is isolated and safe for the drill. • Create Realistic Conditions: Use props like a dummy or mannequin to simulate the injured person. • Establish Observers: Assign safety officers to monitor the exercise and take notes. 3. Execution • Initiate the Scenario: Simulate the arc flash or shock by creating a realistic setup (e.g., simulated sparks, sound effects, and visuals if feasible). • First Responder Action: • Shut down power immediately (if safe to do so). • Use insulated tools to remove the injured worker from the hazard area. • Emergency Response: • Administer first aid (e.g., CPR, if required). • Use fire extinguishers for electrical fires if involved. • Call for medical assistance or transport the injured worker to a hospital. • Evacuation: • Ensure all non-essential personnel evacuate to a safe distance. 4. Post-Drill Evaluation • Conduct a debrief with all participants: • Review what was done correctly and identify areas for improvement. • Assess the use of PPE, adherence to safety protocols, and response time. • Update the Emergency Response Plan (ERP) based on feedback. • Schedule follow-up training if gaps are identified. Key Safety Considerations • Use of PPE: Ensure participants are equipped with insulated gloves, safety helmets, arc-rated suits, etc. • Communication: Use clear communication to announce the start and end of the drill. • Training: Ensure all participants are trained on electrical safety and mock drill procedures beforehand. • Documentation: Record the drill, including observations and outcomes. #job

Another pointless post from a sales rep.. as the qualified extinguisher technician has stated in their post (as per the clients fire risk assessment!) before supplying a so-called fire extinguisher to their client perhaps they should have asked to see the customers fire risk assessment instead of thinking about ££££, another reason why businesses across the country should have the correct people with the correct technical advice turning up at their door! not just a sales rep! in this case a customer has been supplied a type of fire extinguisher that isn't recognised by the British Standards! if you feel you may require further advice from professionals in the industry, contact a reputable company who maintains fire extinguishers to BS5306 parts 3&8. MARLOWE FIRE AND SECURITY do exactly that 👏🏻
