On construction sites, temporary distribution boxes, ground-laid cables, and frequent equipment start-stop cycles create elevated electrical fire risks. PFCS patches deploy flexibly on temporary distribution and equipment, EAPD provides mobile monitoring, and ICOP enables remote inspection—helping reduce on-site fire risk and supporting the safety of workers and equipment.
On construction sites, the temporary power environment changes constantly, and electrical fire risks persist throughout the entire construction cycle:
Temporary distribution boxes, welding machine supply cabinets, and tower crane and hoist control cabinets are key locations for electrical fires on site. Traditional fire protection relies mainly on post-incident alarms, and sites typically lack fixed fire facilities, creating a need for protection that can be flexibly deployed, suppress fires locally and actively, and support remote inspection.
This solution uses the PFCS composite agile fire-control patch as the core protection layer, combined with EAPD device mobile monitoring and the ICOP platform remote inspection, forming an on-site electrical active-protection system of "patch suppression — device early warning — platform inspection."
Overall approach: Deploy PFCS patches flexibly on the surfaces of critical live equipment such as temporary distribution boxes, welding cabinets, and tower crane control cabinets; they actively release a clean extinguishing agent when the temperature rises. EAPD devices move with key equipment for monitoring and issue warnings upon anomalies. The ICOP platform remotely inspects dispersed site distribution points, visualizes risks, and pushes alerts to the project management console. Working together, they help suppress fires at an early stage.
Apply and protect—address electrical fires at the source:
Very early warning, actively suppressing before ignition; the device moves with key equipment and monitors temperature and arc anomalies in real time.
Connects dispersed site distribution points to the project management console for remote inspection and full-area online status, with visualized risks and tiered alert push.
| Protection method | Patch active suppression + device mobile warning + platform remote inspection |
|---|---|
| Extinguishing agent | PFCS clean extinguishing agent (non-conductive, residue-free) |
| Warning capability | EAPD very-early temperature/arc monitoring, active warning before ignition |
| Deployment form | Patch stick-on and ready; EAPD moves with equipment; ICOP cloud deployment |
| Applicable environment | Outdoor, temporary, dynamically changing site power environments |
| Unified management | ICOP connected to project management console, remote centralized inspection of multiple distribution points |
Patches actively release agent on-site, suppressing smoldering without relying on external fire response
Stick-on, ready-to-use patches suit the rhythm of frequent site reconfiguration
ICOP remotely controls dispersed distribution points, reducing manual inspection blind spots
EAPD moves with equipment for monitoring, warning on anomalies in key circuits
This solution also applies to municipal works, renovation sites, and industrial-park maintenance and other temporary power scenarios. The logic is consistent—patch coverage for temporary distribution and equipment, EAPD monitoring of key circuits, and ICOP remote inspection. It can also be paired with PFCS-D liquid-shield coating to cover irregular narrow gaps and blind spots.
The technical approach of this solution references regulations on temporary power safety at construction sites and the PFCS series enterprise standards. It uses a clean non-conductive extinguishing agent suited to active protection of live equipment on site. Combined with EAPD devices and the ICOP platform, it aligns with the "monitoring — warning — local suppression" direction of electrical active protection.

The risk profile is correspondingly different from a permanent campus or factory. CHILION's construction solution addresses that variability with equipment that is robust to handling, simple to redeploy, and easy to verify at the start of a new shift. The mobile nature of construction sites means that an instrumentation device that requires permanent mounting is the wrong tool. The right tool is one that can be relocated, re-commissioned, and re-deployed with a small amount of on-site time. Configuration persistence across relocations is built into the firmware, so the operations team does not need to retrain at every move. Site supervisors can read the cabinet's current risk profile at a glance, which matches their decision-making cadence and reduces cognitive load.
Construction sites run multiple trades simultaneously: electrical rough-in, plumbing, mechanical, finishing. The electrical risk surfaces for one trade often intersect with the working surfaces of another. CHILION's construction solution coordinates this multi-trade reality by providing a single site-level view of cabinet risk that supervisors across all trades can consult. The view is intentionally lighter than the dashboard used in permanent installations, because site supervisors need orientation at speed rather than depth of analysis. The risk information is also shared through a daily safety briefing format, which keeps it visible to the entire site team. The intent is to make cabinet health a routine topic of conversation rather than an obscure technical concern. Field experience suggests that this approach reduces near-miss reports and accelerates incident review.
Calibration and measurement discipline is the foundation of credible alert output. Sensors that drift produce false alarms that erode operator trust; sensors that are not recalibrated produce missed events. Our deployment methodology specifies calibration intervals that respect the sensor class and the operating environment, with the discipline embedded in the maintenance record rather than left to the operator's initiative.
