Why Rail Equipment Faces Extreme Fire Risk

There are several risk zones and ways a fire can break out in rail related equipment, including electrical fires in switching gear and transformers from lack of maintenance or electrical faults.

Electrical Faults

Danger of electrical fires in switching gear and transformers can start from lack of maintenance, electrical faults, and overheating.

Rapid Spread

There is an extremely high likelihood of the fire spreading rapidly, not only contained to the ignition area, but spreading to another piece of equipment.

Catastrophic Consequences

The consequences of these fires can be catastrophic to the rail facility and surrounding area, risking major shutdowns and even lives.
