The most prevalent defect in residential electrical installations is the insufficient fire protection of switchboards. AS/NZS3000:2018 clause 2.10.7 outlines the fire protection measures necessary to prevent the spread of fire from within switchboards into the building, cavities, and conduits.
Guidance provided under clause 2.10.7 explains how these measures can be implemented.
FireXNull is an innovative fire extinguisher system that utilises nanotechnology through either “sticker” or “rope” applications, providing a cost-effective fire suppression solution designed for electrical enclosures of various sizes.
Leveraging advanced nanotechnology, the FXN Rope integrates the functions of traditional systems into a single product—combining agent storage, detection, and discharge—to ensure complete fire suppression.
Each FXN Rope automatically activates at 428°F (220°C) when exposed to heat, instantly suppressing early-stage fires using an eco-friendly, residue-free clean agent.
Engineered for reliability and requiring no maintenance, this solution is perfect for safeguarding high-risk environments containing valuable equipment.
