Cable Fire

Cable overload is one of the most critical contributors to early cable fires. This study proposes a hybrid Bayesian network (BN)-based fire risk analysis model, to investigate the evolution of overload-induced early cable fire risks. In particular, the fire risk transmission paths caused by cable overload are reported, considering the critical factors that likely lead to fires. A BN with a specific structure was considered using the fire risk transmission paths. Later, given the risk index system, a hybrid fire risk assessment model caused by cable overload was developed based on the entropy weight method. Subsequently, the corresponding risk levels were evaluated based on the evolution of the fire risk, using numerical simulations. Finally, a case study was conducted to validate the proposed methods, and the results indicated that the proposed methods can effectively evaluate the state of the cable and explain the causes of fire risk, which can be used for early fire warnings.

One of the major challenge from unplanned growth in the cities is the fire incidents posing a serious threat to life and property. Delhi, the capital city of India, has seen unplanned growth of colonies resulting in a serious concern for the relevant agencies. This paper investigates the relation between potential causes of fire incidents during 2013-2016 in South-West Delhi Division of Delhi Fire Services as part of risk analysis using the data about fire stations & their jurisdictions, incidents of fire, water reservoirs available, landuse and population data along with the divisional & sub-divisional boundaries of South-West Delhi division under Delhi Fire Service. Statistical and Geospatial tools have been used together to perform the risk analysis. The analysis reveals that difference in actual occupancy and defined landuse as a part of unplanned growth of settlements is found to be the main reason behind the major fire incidents. The suggested mitigation measures focus on legal, policy, physical & technological aspects and highlight the need to bring the systemic changes with changing scenario of demographics and infrastructure to accommodate more aspects of ground reality.
