Transformer Blast Walls: Fire Protection for Substations
Transformer Fire Protection Barrier
A transformer blast wall, also known as a transformer fire wall, are crucial safety installation designed to mitigate the risk of transformer fires and explosions in electrical substations.
These robust barriers protect both life and critical infrastructure by containing or redirecting explosive forces and intense heat away from sensitive areas. Used globally, a fire separation system is essential in ensuring operational continuity and safety in power distribution networks.
Sinisi Solutions Transformer Blast Walls are a key part of many facilities’ transformer contingency plans, providing transformer fire protection and serving as a fire separation against any ignition source and transformer failures.
