Sažetak
Fires on electric vehicles represent a challenge and a great danger to firefighters, mainly driven by powered electric batteries that are demanding to extinguish. There are two options for extinguishing fire in electric vehicles: Put out the fire or leave the car to turn itself off. The second option creates negative effects on the local population and economy. The first fire-fighting is due to be taken into account. It is very demanding process and includes the use of modern fire extinguishing agents such as F-500 additives, Firesorb and water. Also, the effects of fire-fighting on the electric vehicle may be very serious, starting with electric and thermal shock, the occurrence of burns on the body or the inhalation of toxins. The issue of fire-extinguishing requires analysis, testing and attention of the professional public as the exceptional increase in the purchase of electric vehicles on the market has been observed. One key step in the successful extinguishing fire in electric vehicles is the education of firemen but also cooperation with distributors and manufacturers of electric vehicles. However, manufacturers of electric vehicles use a number of safety features to raise it to the larger level, as the creation of its own markings, safety and security elements in the manufacture of electric vehicles.
