We partnered with a 750 MW Coal Based Thermal Power Plant in India to assess the Fire Load Density for the Power House.
Fire Safety Consulting Project: Fire Load Density Assessment for a 750 MW Thermal Power Plant Power House to Manage Fire Risk
The scope of the fire load assessment includes review and study of the existing facilities in turbo generator control rooms 1, 2 & 3, Turbo generator floor and area, MCC panel room, Drive unit, Cable cellar, MOT area, Hydrogen injection room and Oil purifier room
The detail report with fire load calculations, hazard situations and suggested recommendations helped officials use that data to target and plan their mitigation programs more effectively.
