The civilian population knows little about flammability classes and the procedure for using pyrotechnic products.
Only conscientious citizens or people who have previously found themselves in an unpleasant situation will think several times before launching fireworks or lighting a sparkler.
On the procedure for using pyrotechnic products in residential buildings, BELTA reports with reference to the Ministry of Emergency Situations of Belarus.
Use of pyrotechnic products
The use of certain types of products is permitted in a residential building.
In particular, these may be firecrackers, sparklers and cold sparks.
This standard applies to pyrotechnics that correspond to hazard class I.
This standard is defined by the technical regulation of the Customs Union 006/2011 "On the safety of pyrotechnic products".
This group includes the mentioned firecrackers and sparklers.
Before using these products, it is necessary to study the operating documentation.
It specifies both the hazard class of pyrotechnics and the procedure for its use.
In other cases, the Ministry of Emergency Situations reminds that for fire safety purposes, the use of pyrotechnic products in buildings, outbuildings and structures is not permitted!
