RC37 – Recommendations for the control of fire hazards arising from electrical lighting
These recommendations outline measures that can be taken to reduce the number of fi res caused by artifi cial lighting. Practical advice is provided on the fire hazards associated with this form of lighting and how, if implemented, they can safeguard the safety of employees, and minimise disruption to a company’s business, not only regarding the protection of life but also the protection of property and disruption to business continuity. This updated version 2 release is supplemented by an interactive checklist for use by premises operators and members of maintenance and facilities teams.
