• ICS / categories: Energy industry — fire safety; internal regulatory (industry guidance) for electric power generation and distribution facilities.
• Edition / version: 3rd edition with changes and amendments (includes amendments No.1 and No.2).
• Number of pages: Approximately 77 pages (electronic/PDF editions distributed by standards document vendors list 77 pages).

Scope

Defines fundamental fire-safety requirements for operating energy enterprises (power plants, electrical and thermal networks and associated auxiliary facilities). The rules are intended for engineering-technical personnel, operational and maintenance staff, repair and construction crews, and organizations performing operation, repair, commissioning or testing of technological equipment and structures at energy enterprises. The document also identifies types of buildings and premises requiring automatic fire-extinguishing systems per the RAO "ЕЭС" appendices.

Key topics and requirements

• Organizational measures for fire prevention and emergency readiness (duties, training, documentation).
• Technical requirements for buildings, rooms and installations at power-generating and network facilities (classification of fire-hazardous zones).
• Requirements for fire detection, alarm and automatic fire-extinguishing systems; lists of premises requiring automatic extinguishing per appendices.
• Fire-fighting plans, procedures for fire extinguishing and evacuation, and coordination with external fire services.
• Requirements for storage, handling and maintenance of fuel, oil, transformers, batteries and other combustible/energetic materials.
• Inspection, testing and maintenance schedules for fire-protection equipment and safety systems.
• Reporting, recordkeeping and corrective actions following inspections or incidents.

Typical use and users

Used by power plant operators (thermal, hydro and other generation types), maintenance and safety engineers, site managers, contractors working on energy facilities, designers of power equipment and buildings, and regulatory or oversight personnel within energy companies. It is referenced when developing internal fire-safety procedures, fire-fighting plans and when specifying fire-protection systems for energy-sector projects.
