Abstract

This research aims to evaluate and re-map the Portable Fire Extinguishers (PFE) in the office buildings of PLN UID East Java. The method employed is a descriptive observational approach, gathering primary data through direct observation and structured interviews, supplemented by secondary data from document reviews. The findings reveal a gap between fire safety standards and actual conditions, such as improper PFE placement, unclear expiration dates, and an uneven distribution of PFE across buildings. Risk analysis identifies hazards from these issues, including delayed fire response and potential failure of PFE during emergencies. Calculating PFE needs based on Permenakertrans Regulation No. 04/MEN/1980 and NFPA-10 edition 2022 generates recommendations for redistributing PFE. Based on these calculations, three buildings (C, F, I) are found to have an excess of 13 PFE, while four buildings (A, B, D, E) are short by 9 PFE. The recommendation suggests transferring 11 PFE from Building F: 4 PFE to Building A, 3 PFE to Building B, and 2 PFE each to Buildings D and E. This redistribution ensures the correct number of PFE in each building, enhancing fire safety management in PLN UID Jawa Timur office buildings. This action aims to align the PFE distribution with safety requirements.

Abstract

This study evaluates the fire protection system in Building B of PLN UID East Java. Fire incidents in work environments are often caused by electrical short circuits and improper waste burning, leading to both material and non-material losses, such as loss of life and operational disruptions. PLN UID East Java, being a vital national object, requires an effective fire protection system to safeguard against such risks. The evaluation covers three primary components: fire extinguishers (APAR), hydrants, and fire alarm systems. The evaluation methodology includes direct observation and comparison with established safety standards like NFPA 10, NFPA 14, and NFPA 72. The results showed that the APAR system met 85% of the standards, the hydrant system 83.12%, and the fire alarm system 79.29%. Despite being relatively well-equipped, there were several areas for improvement, such as updating expired fire extinguishers, providing clear hydrant usage instructions, and conducting fire alarm simulations more frequently. Enhancing these aspects is essential to ensure maximum safety for the building’s occupants and the continuity of operations.
