METHOD AND SYSTEM TO AVOID FIRE OF AN ELECTRICAL DEVICE
The invention is directed to a system comprising (i) an electrical device connected to a source of electrical power; (ii) a container comprising a solid propellant gas generator, an igniter and a filter positioned between the solid propellant gas generator and an outflow opening for a gas, which outflow opening is fluidly connected to the electrical device; (iii) means to detect fire indicator levels, comprising means to detect a temperature, a carbon monoxide level and a smoke particle level in the electrical device; and (iv) a control system having a control logic which, when two of the three fire indicators levels as measured by means (iii) are above a threshold value, will cut off the source of electrical power, and which will actuate the igniter after a predetermined delay time.
