Help mitigate risks of fire and explosion in electric generating plants by complying with the latest recommended safety practices. There are special concerns for fire and life safety in plants and facilities that produce or convert the current of electricity. NFPA® 850, Recommended Practice for Fire Protection for Electric Generating Plants and High Voltage Direct Current Converter Stations, 2020 edition, is an essential resource for assisting in maximizing the safety of personnel, facilities, and the community at large. Criteria apply to new and existing oil, gas, coal, and alternative fuel electrical generating plants, including high voltage direct current converter stations and combustion turbine units used for electric generation. The document provides the framework for creating a Fire Protection Design Basis Document that takes into account potential risks to the particular facility, including flammable liquids, fuels, lubricating oils, dust explosions, and electrical equipment. NFPA 850 also covers the protection and continuity of installations and personnel, systems and components, and plant operations. The NFPA 850, 2020 edition, provides access to cutting-edge criteria for fire prevention and protection of plants generating electricity. Developed to provide a document specifying fire protection measures for all types of non-nuclear electric generating plants, the revised NFPA 850 reflects the most current industry knowledge and best practices. Significant changes to the 2020 edition include: Complete reorganization of the document for accuracy and clarity Grouping of information in a more logical layout to assist users in navigating the document faster and more efficiently Addition of new chapters on flywheel energy systems and compressed air energy storage (CAES) to address technologies being used in the industry Get the support you need to help identify and reduce risks to lives and property in electrical generating plants.
