Abstract
In recent years, many electrical fires have occurred due to complex causes. Therefore, products are required to make with scientific design considering electrical, thermal, mechanical and environmental influences. Disasters can cause losses of life and property with fall in confidence of countries and companies. And demands for safe product have been increased by reason of recent deregulation followed by limitless competition. It is necessary to design safe product in order to improve corporate image and strengthen international competitive power. This paper addresses electrical fire case of air conditioner. The use of air conditioner have recently increased as a result of global warming. The aim of this study is to provide safety design and fire prevention measures of air conditioner through cause analysis and reappearance experiments.
