Abstract
This study presents on the analysis fire hazards of drum type electric washing machine. In order to analyze fire hazards fire experiment is conducted. The fire experiment is conducted to simulate under the normal condition and abnormal condition. The experiment under the abnormal condition is simulated in safety device failure, situation of accumulated dust and tracking phenomenon caused by humidity. The results show that fire hazard is high at the abnormal condition. In this paper, we suggest to use the safety device of low operating temperature in electric washing machine for reducing fire hazard.
