So because of what the shopping center "Winter Cherry" caught fire. Media reports on the outcome of the investigation

104
The newspaper "Kommersant" comes out with a material in which it is stated about the established cause of the fire in the Kemerovo shopping and entertainment center "Winter Cherry". At the same time, the publication refers to sources at the fire examination research center of the St. Petersburg University of the State Fire Service EMERCOM of Russia. Specialists of this particular center were engaged in the examination in the shopping center "Winter Cherry".

Kommersant citing a source reports that a short circuit caused by a leaking roof led to a fire. Melt water was inside the building, while the circuit breakers installed precisely for protection against short circuit and overload in the network did not work. For whatever reason, the operation did not occur, not reported.



So because of what the shopping center "Winter Cherry" caught fire. Media reports on the outcome of the investigation


After the short circuit occurred, a plastic chandelier caught fire on a children's “dry pool” with foam cubes. The spread of fire could have been avoided if the staff immediately turned off the ventilation, as instructed in such cases. However, the ventilation was not turned off, and the air entering the building fanned out the fire. Within a few minutes, the rooms on the 4 floor were shrouded in acrid smoke and spreading fire. At the same time, the fire alarm system worked, but the burning area was not flooded with water, as the previously frozen water supply was blocked.

Recall that the terrible tragedy in the city of Kemerovo claimed 64 life.

      Is it just business to blame? In Russia, it was always like in the proverb about 7 nannies: they will scout a bunch of inspectors and supervisors, but there’s no benefit — just an imitation of violent activity. Remember the Examiner Gogol. Nothing has changed in 200 years. The whole rotten system of checks and stupid to idiocy system of unnecessary reporting to anyone.

      “Kommersant” doesn’t respect oneself. Guessing over the coffee grounds, who will surpass anyone. The Investigative Committee talked about a closed power cable in between floors. The investigation will figure it out, of course, but corruption in the Ministry of Emergencies due to such fraud and disregard for PB rules certainly rolls over .

    Rave. Complete nonsense. If the machines do not knock out, they burn out. Followed by opening the circuit. At the same time, dried-up insulation of the wiring can burn, if it was originally made to stop a hundred years ago without observing any installation standards. BUT!!! In this case, in any case, the PPZ should have worked (alarm, sprinklers, etc., including the same fire extinguishers, even with fright, visitors had to find and apply them).

      I don’t pin up, it’s really interesting ...
      they kind of wrote about the alarm that it was constantly turned off due to frequent false alarms
      so that irrigators could work in the system, after all, should there be water? but where does it come from when the water supply is blocked ... and pouring water into live wiring is probably not the best idea ...

        About the spread of fire - here I completely agree.
        But where and what exactly did that spark fall from, or rather, could they have arisen in a commercial quantity if the protection even worked correctly?
        Most likely it didn’t really work or worked with a very long delay.
        And for the experiment, just take a piece of cotton wool, wrap it with a piece of cord with its bare ends slightly touching, and poke it into a power outlet. Bah! and knocked out the machine! (I hope so!)
        And after all, ICHS will be lit with cotton! But if the short-circuit current is less than 3 times the value of the thermal setpoint, then the shutdown time can stretch to MINUTES!

      hi
      Even a layman understands that all too quickly blazed. And, as luck would have it, on this day the maximum number of children was, and blazed in the children's zone, also, as luck would have it. And yet, as luck would have it, the doors were locked. And also, as luck would have it, the fire alarm did not work. And yet, as luck would have it, firefighters rode for a long time. And yet, as luck would have it, the stew was tuned for a long time. And also, as luck would have it, the stew began not where the children were. Are there too many tragic coincidences at a time? But this is not a complete list of them! In my opinion, this is not pulling on negligence, not sloppiness, and not on the thirst for the maximum profit of businessmen, although this too played its evil role.

          found the record of the first channel’s transmission, looked
          the plot was made "cut", it seemed that before Bastrykin’s words it was probably about why the fire was not localized and there was a fire of this magnitude

          found Bastrykin’s not “cut” record with a transcript
          The most important task that we have practically completed is the completion of the inspection of the scene of the accident, where there was a fire.

          Two main versions are being put forward: this is a malfunction of the fire safety system, and the second version, which is put forward by the persons who are brought to criminal responsibility by us, is officials and specialists, they argue that self-arson is possible using open fire.

          Our first results show that this is an unlikely version. Of greater importance, more promising, more important and more reliable is the malfunction of the fire extinguishing system, the prevention and elimination of the source of fire.

        There is such a preventive procedure - a periodic check of the protection operation (it used to be called phase-zero loop resistance measurement).
        Personally, I wrote out thousands of protocols for such checks. Measurements were made by my workers.

          This is somewhat different: with this parameter, you can calculate whether the protection will work or not. Accordingly, it is possible to understand whether the circuit was correctly composed and whether the parameters were worsened: by the changes made or by the contacts not tightened.

            A person who has worked for 20 years as the head of the electrical measuring laboratory of a power network in an almost million city? I personally made THOUSAND of these measurements!
            I was a hundred times a member of the commission for taking tests on PTE and PTB and my favorite question that I asked thousands of times was: "What is the difference between grounding and grounding." Professionals working in the existing HIGH-VOLTAGE installations and have NEVER received the correct, detailed answer! Only my men from the laboratory could say something intelligible.

              Not. Those who think that the “periodic verification of the protection operation” is “measuring the resistance of the phase-zero loop”.
              In general, for shields where there are no protection terminals, the first phrase is slightly incorrect.

                Not. Those who think that the “periodic verification of the protection operation” is “measuring the resistance of the phase-zero loop”.
                These are essentially synonyms.
                The M-417 device was called so, and it was he who measured the phase-zero loop resistance from 0,1 ohms to 2 ohms. After that, 220 V is divided by the obtained value and a short-circuit current is obtained.
                By the way, a very convenient device. Since the 60s it has not been released, but we still use it, since there are no troubles with it with the operation of the protection.
                Modern instruments measure immediately in short-circuit current, but are less convenient.
                The same is measured, but the result in other units is displayed.
                Direct short-circuit current measurement is performed only in studies.

                    No, not necessarily!
                    Only machines with large ratings are loaded (AVM-10, 15, for example). There are problems there, the current 3-4KA for verification is already difficult to obtain, but such checks are few. Almost units.
                    So, if in this shopping center the verification of the operation of the protection has ever been carried out, it is only before commissioning.

                        RCD has no protection against short circuit and overload.
                        It works only if there is a leak from the phase TO EARTH or the fifth (for 3 f) or the third (for 2 f).
                        Such networks appeared only in the 90s.
                        All networks until (conditionally) 90 g. Were carried out by 4 or 2-wire.
                        10 years is no longer in the topic (in Canada), maybe in the PUE changes have been made about the mandatory installation of RCDs, but earlier it was only recommended.
                        About 12 years ago, the first training manual for checking RCDs and the form of the protocol only appeared.

This is the current that "catches", just the RCD. You can compare 0,3A (this is not for people, right?) RCDs and 10 ... 16 ... 25 .... 100 (and also take into account the overload) And the rated current AB ?!

                        Let's separate the flies from the cutlets.
                        If the lamp turned on, then there was a 16 A submachine gun, it could have worked, but in more time. Short circuit could be on the body, but it could be zero. If the RCD does not work at zero, it should theoretically not work.
                        Further, I do not know and will not specify for which max current 3-phase RCDs are produced, but relatively small (like 50 amperes I saw max because there are already leakage currents of more than 100 mA).
                        Further, the price of the issue. Here, in the bourgeoisie, the RCD by codes is put only on sockets if they are closer than 5 or 6 feet (sort of) to the sink in the kitchen or toilet. They are made directly in the form and dimensions of a standard socket, only with a button in the middle. This "button" is worth about 20 bucks (without it a penny). Nobody puts them on the lighting circuit even here. On group floor guards they are not there either, even here.
                        I am sure that our PUE (I do not know for sure, for it is already unnecessary) does not require lighting.
                        Now a stupid question. Have you ever seen a floor shield with an RCD, at least with a group at the input? I have never seen.
                        But in the 10 years that I’m not in the topic, the requirements could have changed, but this only applies to RELEASED ELECTRICAL INSTALLATIONS, and those that are not concerned for 50 years. At all!
                        Yes, and how many years of operation of this shopping center, if 10 years, then there UZO in general could even be not provided for in the project.

                        The question is whether in the project (in fact) in the shopping center the requirements of the PUE were met?
                        If meets the requirements - no questions. The presence of protocols relieves the responsibility of the staff, if there is no evil Pinocchio to itself!
                        Were the protection tests carried out during the commissioning of the facility and during operation, or were the protocols simply stupidly rewritten and were there any?
                        What kind of "cable" passed over the room and why did he while away? For the cable in the water to lie quite comfortable.
                        If the lamp is short, then ... see above.

        Let one stick (even a new one is not uncommon), it is the last one and it has not been knocked out. In this group there is a common - even 80 A - it will be knocked out only this way with K \ Z, with a wire of 1.5 squares. But there is also RAM, and a general automatic shield or fusible inserts. In short, blame on the machine - the easiest. Only here I indicated three levels of protection. I’m silent about the fire alarm (since it’s already late) - which automatically disables the machines.

              Yes, everything is simpler here, the machine must protect the cable, if the cable caught fire, melted, then the rating of the machine did not correspond to the cross-section of the cable., Which means that such a mess could have been in distribution networks, that mom do not cry.

              laughing Well yes, it depends. It depends more on the laying method. And how much the line will hold depends on the resistance of the phase-zero loop (see above - there is a mention), i.e. if it is not low enough, the circuit breaker may not work. In addition, I mentioned a metal circuit. The short circuit in the cable may not be metallic - in a conductive medium as a result of insulation failure, when the resistance at the circuit is not equal to zero (when metallic, when the wires touch each other or the ground electrode, it will become zero).

            There is no such letter in the word! (FROM)
            RCD does not protect against overload and short circuit from the word "in general". Only from touching current-carrying parts and breakdown to grounded parts (cases).

            It protects people from the action of current. If you have the correct installation, as well as verification, not just by pressing a button on the RCD, but by actually measuring the leakage current. ChSKH how many times did not measure - it is practically almost exactly according to the setpoint and works! Almost without scatter, in contrast to automatic machines, which had to be loaded repeatedly with primary current.

    All this does not explain the blocking of fire exits. As a rule, they are automatically unlocked when a fire alarm is triggered. And again blocked when it is turned off. The only real explanation is that the alarm was manually turned off. This automatically blocks the fire exits. That is, the security turned it off and it led like blocking the doors. Most likely they thought it was a false positive, and when they realized that a real fire, they panicked and forgot to turn it on. In general, my IMHO, but as it was real, the investigation will determine.

    Sorry to interfere, but the cable in "such buildings" is laid so that it can be laid for the amount that remains after cutting the budget on the part of the customer, after the subcontractor rolls back to the general contractor, then after the subcontractor rolls back to the subcontractor, then after the foreman, who compensates for his low the sub-contractor’s salary and premium cuts will also take some of the amount.

Nearby are always mothers, grandparents, fathers ... Often the number of adults is more than the number of children on a trampoline !! And now all these people, according to the investigation, are completely stupid people and oligophrenics who watch the chandelier light up (Chandelier, Karl !!), yeah, apparently the situation was happening at least in the Hermitage ... further, they calmly watch the foam rubber start to burn and they don’t do anything until the fire broke out before there was nothing to breathe ... And only after that they grabbed an armful of children and fled from the over-smoked room. These are the people in Kemerovo understand the brakes. Well, the "iksperdy" wrote.
    In reality, camera recordings are available! Adults and children are very clearly visible, running down the stairs from the 4th floor, clubs of black smoke just fall behind them !! Iksperdy, AU !! Yes, any parent, in the event of the slightest focus of ignition of his child in an armful and run away !! No fire alarms are needed there, in seconds the entire shopping center would know that there was a fire !! And I don’t say anything about grandparents ... And then for about 5 minutes people calmly watch their children burn up ?? !!
    Iksperdy. you yourself are not ashamed to lie like that ?? am
    Leaks, non-working machines, etc. just reinforced the effects of sabotage. I think that the terrorists themselves hardly expected this. And of course, you need to punish for these violations and painfully punish! BUT to call a cause of instant fire of foam rubber a certain leak in the roof, this is an excuse for mockery !!
    I appeal to the Kemerovo citizens - was there a chandelier in the trampoline ?? And if so, what size and where did it hang?

      I don’t know whether you take my word for it or not, but it’s not just a chandelier. I am convinced that the wiring to the chandelier was made with wild violations. I myself have seen many times how the cable burns. This is not a single flash point, the cable burns from a short circuit or overload, almost the entire length. In this case, clots of burning "isolation" fall down and emit such a smell and smoke, no worse than burning sulfur (the eyes "eats up" and a cough such that it is difficult to restrain). By the way, putting them out is pretty difficult. As for the machines, there are a lot of fakes, sometimes such machines work like a regular switch (smoke comes out of it, but it does not "work"). All this is sad. The fact that all the checks in this shopping center were fictitious, I'm sure.

    It is possible that the protection was performed at all even not on machines, but simply connected to an old shield with fuses.
    This in itself is not scary, provided that the fuse rating is not less than 3 times less than the short circuit current.
    Short-circuit current is determined by the project and checked by special devices without disconnecting the load by voltage sagging when connecting a calibrated resistance.
    And this is done when the object is commissioned and every 3 years.

    the cult of profit, on which the Putin prays with his comrades, will collect the bloody harvest again and again. In general, the crane, the chandelier and the foam cube are to blame. they must be judged and given a life sentence.

    “Bravo” Not only to business, but also to the “vertical of power”. Her slowness, corruption and sloppiness is perhaps the main reason for the tragedy.

    Those. the owners blocked the fire water supply, did not monitor the state of the electrics, the staff did not follow the safety protocols, and is the “power vertical” to blame?

    Sloppiness, ignorance, poh-zm, distribution and greed led to the death of people. One must begin with oneself, brothers. Do not allow yourself to score on what you simply have to do! not because you or your uncle will be fined, but because then someone will have to bury someone.
    Do not allow yourself to save or take a bribe for the fact that someone will not do something that will affect the safety of people.
    Do not allow yourself to miss a piece of paper, not because somewhere the print is not the right one or the deadlines have passed, but because the piece of paper does not correspond to the reality of life ...

    I have the honor.

    It was reported that the electric cables hung on the ceiling openly. This should not be. According to the requirements of the EMP, at present, preference should be given to cables marked with [ng] or another, meaning "non-burning". The cable should be laid in the "corrugation", pipes, cable channels, etc. In buildings where people are supposed to stay. In addition to AV-shek, RCDs, difavtomaty should be installed.

    The spread of fire could be avoided if the staff immediately turned off the ventilation, as in such cases the instruction
    - what nonsense? The ventilation should have turned off AUTOMATICALLY! There is only one reason - violations during construction and bribery during surrender and inspections!

    Rave. Complete nonsense. If the machines do not knock out, they burn out. Followed by opening the circuit. At the same time, dried-up insulation of the wiring can burn, if it was originally made to stop a hundred years ago without observing any installation standards. BUT!!! In this case, in any case, the PPZ should have worked (alarm, sprinklers, etc., including the same fire extinguishers, even with fright, visitors had to find and apply them). The article is a complete kitchen.

    Kuynya, this is your comment, if the machine did not work when closed, then in the future it does not differ from the conductor until it burns with the whole building. Another thing is that somewhere it is written that the smoke removal system should have worked, here it is that the ventilation should have been turned off. In general, you will not please everyone

    The impression that the roof is "leaking" at the Ministry of Emergencies - again the people are being pulled in by the emergency circuit wiring closure !!! Do you understand what you write ?.

    I think that such institutions for children, in the future, at the reception, parents of children near the houses should be present, for example, dad firefighters, police, prosecutors, etc. I think such rules will radically change the acceptance rules and the main quality! Eternal memory of the dead and condolences to the family and friends.

      ! Yes, the state commission should take all the buildings where a lot of people walk or live, that's how it was.
      and now - private shops are drawing and calculating the house (they remove everything "superfluous" from the project), and accepts it - the local administration and local commissions.
      STATE COMMISSION. OUTDOOR, WITH LABORATORY, ONE IN THE COUNTRY - and immediately everyone in the whole country will no longer want to save (build with violations) on emergency stairs, exhaust shafts, water communications with normal pressure, wiring and high-quality concrete.
      .
      He built a high-rise building, the commission arrived - the foundation of the wrong fortress - a house for demolition.
      The concrete wiring was lifted, they checked the tooth in the laboratory - NOT THAT! - A complete replacement for the entire object and it does not matter what is scratched on the wire. And further down the list - the supplier of poor-quality wiring is already shaking

        Further, the Supplier indicates the manufacturer, and there they shake the technologist, quality control department or who measures the thickness there and the composition of the wiring interferes. (well, or concrete interferes, if about concrete), private shops are shaking, who issued certificates for products.
        Further, the manufacturer shakes the supplier of low-quality raw materials and who issued certificates for raw materials (again private shops!) Shakes out all forfeits in short. through the court.
        .
        THE ONLY WAY.
        And then everyone will feel their responsibility for their work.
        And corruption itself will die

    Well, this is the cause of the fire. And now I would like to hear about the totality of the investigation of the factors that led to this cause. The next center in Arkhangelsk is already burning, and this is after the prosecutor’s checks!
