1 Order Cut Set 2: Fuel Storage Tank Explosion

An explosion can occur when three conditions are present: 1) a fuel storage tank containing an explosive range of fuel vapors, 2) an ignition source such as an electrostatic spark or open fire, and 3) the ignition source coming into contact with the fuel vapors. Potential causes of ignition sources include electrostatic discharge from measuring equipment, smoking, fireworks, or exposure to damaged electrical equipment due to human error factors like poor calibration, inexperience, or incorrect device settings.
