Electrical fires continue to plaque the region
August 20, 2008
Country:
Swaziland
Client(s):
In light of recent fires in Industrial neighbourhoods, Duval Messien today stated that this may be linked to poor adherence of basic protocol for electrical fault prevention including earthing, such as those applicable in the EU where enforcement of maintenance protocols is stringently followed. The recent fire at Al Quoz in Dubai, which engulfed more than 70 warehouses and caused a staggering Dhs. 600 million in damage, is but a shocking reminder of the destructive powers of fire and the way we are ignoring to safeguard from it. The Al Qouz area itself has had a history of fire related incidents, with eight fires since 2003 reported Gulf News recently. Reuters in another report stated that the world's largest artificial islands ‘the palm’ also experienced similar devastation last year, wounding three people and charring two unfinished buildings due to an apparent electrical fault.
