What is the cause of the fire in Shantou guesthouse?

On February 20th, 2000, a fire broke out in Shantou Hotel. After investigation, it was confirmed that the fire was caused by the fire of the circuit system in the guest house, and the fire of the circuit system was caused by long-term use and lack of renovation and maintenance.

Long-term use: 1992 guest house was completed, 1996 accepted high temperature and extreme climate. Because the building has not cooled down and the temperature space pressure is high, the circuit system fire is a typical "inside-out" fire.

Insufficient decoration: Shantou Guest House has been used for 8 years. The comprehensive evaluation shows that the building has not adapted to the electrical requirements of the current market changes, lacks effective modification, and has a greater possibility of fire.

Timely maintenance: The electrical equipment of Shantou Guest House has never been effectively maintained or updated since its installation and operation. Due to the high indoor temperature, long service time and lack of effective maintenance of electrical equipment, fire hazards are increasing day by day.

To sum up, the fire in Shantou guesthouse was caused by long-term use and lack of renovation and maintenance.
