What are the Causes of Appliance Fires?
Appliance fires are a serious hazard that can cause significant property damage. There are many different causes of appliance fires, but some of the most common include:
-
Faulty wiring: Overheating, arcing, or short-circuiting can all cause electrical fires.
-
Defective appliances: Appliances with damaged insulation or faulty components can also start fires.
-
Improper use: Overloading appliances, using them for extended periods of time, or using them in a wet or humid environment can all increase the risk of fire.
