Hydrant installation details need to be coordinated among all parties involved at the construction site. If hydrants are being installed in areas to be landscaped or if final grading elevations are not clear, the hydrant design that is specified should easily accommodate placement of riser extensions of various lengths so that the final hydrant installation is compatible with the final grade elevation.

From the standpoint of training and field performance, it is advantageous for hydrant spotting points of reference to be consistent. Also, with respect to taking the hydrant on the left hand side of the street, a mirror image configuration (pumper outlet facing away from the apparatus) will often leave the hookup "short." Unless the hydrant is right at the curb line, the front suction line may not reach the pumper outlet and a more time consuming side hookup will have to be executed. If an engine can't nose up to the hydrant due to parked cars, the 45 degree outlet orientation still provides adequate clearance to extend a hose line between the cars to the engine Tagline - “ ”.

HAZID studies involve identification of hazards and the events, which may lead to risk to either people, Environment, Asset .The objective of Hazid is to identify the potential hazards and to reduce the probability and consequences of an incident in site that would have a detrimental impact to the personnel plant, properties and environment. HAZID is critical to safety duties and the safety report Employer must identify all major accidents and their related causes using a systematic and documented HAZID approach

Electrical Safety NFPA 70 E – Standard for Electrical Safety in the Workplace

The original and primary mission of the NFPA

• Primarily covered by installation standards contained in the National Electric Code – NFPA 70
• The incidence of fire ignition has dropped dramatically since the advent of the NEC and the acceptance of installation requirements within the industry

The “Employer” is responsible for

• OSHA requirements
• Electrical Safety Program
• Safety Policies and Procedures
• Safety Training and Retraining

• Implementing employer’s safety procedures

• Contractors on site with Owner

Approach Boundaries NFPA 70E-2012 Ch. 1, Section 130

Entered only by qualified persons or unqualified persons that have been advised and are escorted by a qualified person

Entered only by qualified persons required to use shock protection techniques and PPE

Entered only by qualified persons requiring same protection as if direct contact with live part Flash Protection Boundary Linear distance to prevent any more than 2nd degree burns from a potential arc-flash (typically 4 feet)

The objectives and scope of the Lightning & Surge Protection Study are as follows:

• Review the existing lightening protection system against national and international standards and correction and addition in the system to comply with various applicable standards for refinery/terminal along with risk analysis.
• Study of maintenance aspects of lightening protection and suggest suitable corrective actions in existing system.
• Risk analysis reports with all as build drawings, reference standards applicable for refinery/terminal.

• Carryout a systematic, critical appraisal of all potential hazards involving personnel, plant, services and operation methods

• Understand that behind each fatality or serious injury there are thousands of at-risk behaviors and unidentified hazards that contributed to the incident

• Determine methods for controlling hazards in the workplace.

• Identify the existing safeguards available to control the risks due to the hazards

• Suggest additional control measures to reduce the risk to acceptable level

• Prepare a Risk Register that will help in continuously monitoring these risks, detect any changes and ensure the controls are effective.

Fire is one of the major concerns for any type of facility whether Industry, Commercial Building or Residential Apartments.

As per the NCRB’s 2014 ADSI Report, 4.3% accidents have happened due to fire which accounts to total of 19,513 casualties.

Therefore it is highly important to take regard of Fire Safety.

Electrical System is the backbone of all the Industrial & Commercial Installations. Any disruption in the electrical system can bring the complete industry to stand-still and thus making it a highly critical part of any installation.

Electrical system can be very dangerous and lethal in case of,

• Incorrect designing
• Incorrect selection
• Incorrect Installation
• Improper Maintenance

A coordination study consists of the selection or setting of all series protective devices from the load upstream to the power supply. In selecting or setting these protective devices, a comparison is made of the operating times of all the devices in response to various levels of overcurrent. The objective is to design a selectively coordinated electrical power system.

Proper application and coordination of over-current relays and other protective devices is vital in a system requiring reliable electrical service. expert engineers bring the critical experience needed for the proper application of ANSI and NEC requirements to equipment protection.

In addition to relays that respond to short circuits, low-voltage breakers, differential, directional, power, under-voltage, out-of-step, and other special protective relays often need to be set.

Fire & Gas Mapping studies aim to assess a detector layout against the pre-specified performance targets for detecting a reference flame or gas cloud. Performance targets for specific areas of a facility are generally agreed in advance of the study and aligned with the overall Fire & Gas Safety Philosophy and applicable standards or good practice guides.

Flame detection mapping determines the number of detectors triggered in each location as the reference flame is moved across the assessment area. The method requires a 3D representation of the facility in order to fully account for the blockages to visibility created by the equipment. Existing 3D models can be imported in a range of formats and models used for explosion assessment can be used directly. If no 3D model is available representations of major obstructions can be incorporated manually based on layout and elevation drawings. Detector layout can then be optimized to ensure defined performance targets are achieved.

Any restrictions in detector mounting for access and maintenance (such as detector height) can be accounted for in the optimization. For both fire and gas mapping, the relative contribution from each detector to the overall coverage is determined.
