Intent 1:
To limit the probability that electrical conductors
will fail prematurely when exposed to fire, which could lead to mechanical
systems not operating properly in a fire situation, which could lead
to:
- fire emergency response operations being delayed or
ineffective, which could lead to:
- delays in the evacuation or movement of persons to a
safe place, which could lead to harm to persons, and
- the spread of fire to other parts of the building, which
could lead to harm to persons,
- persons not being promptly notified of the fire situation,
which could lead to delays in the evacuation or movement of persons
to a safe place, which could lead to harm to persons, and
- the buildup of smoke in exit stairs or floor areas,
which could lead to:
- delays or inefficiencies in fire suppression operations,
which could lead to the spread of fire, which could lead to harm to
persons, including emergency responders, and
- delays in the evacuation or movement of persons to a
safe place, which could lead to harm to persons.
