Standards
NFPA® 855, Standard for the Installation of Stationary Energy Storage , provides insight into mitigating risks and helping to ensure all installations are performed appropriately, taking into account vital life safety considerations.
NFPA 70E requirements for safe work practices to protect personnel by reducing exposure to major electrical hazards. Originally developed at OSHA's request, helps companies and employees avoid workplace injuries and fatalities due to shock, electrocution, arc flash, and arc blast, and assists in complying with OSHA 1910 Subpart S and OSHA 1926 K
Enforced in all 50 states, NFPA 70, National Electrical Code (NEC) is the benchmark for safe electrical design, installation, and inspection to protect people and property from electrical hazards.
NFPA 70B details preventive maintenance for electrical, electronic, and communication systems and equipment -- such as those used in industrial plants, institutional and commercial buildings, and large multi-family residential complexes -- to prevent equipment failures and worker injury
The strategies and solutions that first responders, builders, and engineers take to prevent and fight fire are constantly advancing. NFPA 1, Fire Code, offers the most current source to help prevent the dangers of fire and improving the safety of those who fight against it.This popular industry staple offers a comprehensive approach to fire code
This comprehensive code offers provisions for regulating and controlling the permitting, design, construction, materials, and use, occupancy, and location of buildings, structures, and specific equipment. This vital resource addresses dangers such as fire, flood, earthquake, wind, and other hazards and environmental concerns.
