Power Distribution

Power distribution at electric substations contain a number of features that represent particular fire risks*:

• Substations are generally unattended.
• The equipment in substations operates at relatively high energy levels.
• Some substation equipment contains significant fuel loads. In particular oil cooled transformers and reactors, and large cable banks contain significant masses of flammable material.
• Cable ducts and conduits can act as paths for oil following a transformer failure.
• Unsealed ducts can convey burning oil into adjacent buildings.
