Federal Law "Technical Regulations on Fire Safety Requirements"

It's not a secret that most often people are guilty of fires and it's their carelessness that leads to a fire. Fires cause immense material damage, in some cases they also take away human lives. Therefore, the task of every reasonable person is to protect the surrounding world from fire.

The federal law "Technical regulations on fire safety requirements" is precisely designed to legitimize this duty, as well as to promote the maintenance of its general principles. The purpose of this document is to protect the lives of people, their health and property of different forms of ownership.

The main cause of fire in the house is usually the careless and inept treatment of people with fire when cooking, using faulty electrical appliances, conducting repair or electric welding work, smoking and children's pranks. The fire at the plant occurs for more significant reasons. It causes much greater material damage and often leads to accidents on a large scale.

The cause of the emergence and development of fires in production are:

• Violation of the requirements and rules for the operation of industrial equipment and appliances having low fire protection;
• Use in the construction of facilities of materials that fully or not fully meet safety requirements;
• The absence of modern, effective means designed to combat fire in the fire protection units at certain enterprises and economic facilities, and even, which is generally unacceptable.

Technical regulations on fire safety requirements indicate the main provisions in the field of confrontation with fires, including industrial facilities, and establishes general requirements for the protection of buildings, industrial facilities, and various structures. Understand, however, under fire safety is the state of the facility, which excludes the possibility of a fire occurring on it. If, nevertheless, the ignition has occurred, then concrete necessary measures are used, which will eliminate not only the fire itself, but also other dangerous factors that negatively affect people themselves, as well as structures and various material values.

This normative document lists specific requirements for production facilities in the design, construction and construction, as well as general purpose products and fire fighting equipment. And also the law "Technical Regulations for Fire Safety" establishes an order that assesses the compliance of products and objects of protection with these requirements. Here is also a reference material that can be used in the practical application of this document.

When the law was enacted, some administrative and technical measures were applied to the owner of the protection objects, namely buildings and structures. For the first time this document introduced a new principle, providing fire safety - declaration. Technical regulations on fire safety requirements transfer the entire volume of responsibility for fire safety to the owners of the protection objects. Now they must determine what needs to be done to ensure that at a particular enterprise, organization or other facility it is safe and there is no fires. A special document is set up for this process - the Declaration.

This document, containing information about a specific object on the existing fire safety measures on it , assesses the compliance of the protection level of a particular object with a normative document. According to the Technical Regulations on Fire Safety Requirements, this document can be drawn up independently, by the owner himself, and with the participation of a specialized organization. It is made up for almost all production, construction sites, shopping centers, offices, household and commercial services. And, of course, concerns children's institutions, health organizations, sports facilities and other facilities where there is always a large crowd of people.

As indicated in the Technical Regulations on fire safety requirements, this declaration is provided even before the relevant facility is put into operation.
