(D)BillboardIn an earlier report published in Fire Findings we discussed results from testing performed on certainreflective radiant barrier laminated sheet material, which is purchased in rolls. This is the material commonly53 on attic floors (above the insulation) to provide an effective thermally reflective barrier above theceiling of a building. That testing demonstrated 54 that, if electrically energized by incidental contactwith a powered conductor in a standard branch circuit, this material would arc and 55 rather violentlyand would frequently catch fire and sustain flame. Clearly, this could 56 other nearby more flammablematerials, and thus initiate a major structure fire.✕ 你選的
