Electrical Fire Expert
Electrical experts from Bison Engineering bring more than twenty years’ experience to the investigation of electrical incidents of every description. Bison’s Engineers are experts in investigating residential and industrial electrical fires, electrical equipment failures, electrical-related explosions, along with various other accidents or situations. Each year, electrical fires, electrical failures and other electrical incidents are the source of hundreds of fatalities, or injury to thousands of people and result in billions of dollars in property damage.
Such incidents may include electrical appliance fires, electrocutions, electrical-related equipment failures, industrial explosions or other catastrophic events that occur without warning. Each case is unique in its circumstances, and must be investigated thoroughly by qualified electrical engineering experts. This helps to prevent future tragedies and assists in court related proceedings or insurance issues.
Comprehensive Experience in Electrical Fires
Bison’s electrical experts find that electrical fires, failures and other incidents can often be traced to problems with items such as control circuits and related devices; malfunctioning circuit boards or safety switches; timers, controllers, sensors, actuators, or other components. Whether the event is a small house fire or a large plant explosion, Bison Engineering’s electrical experts approach each case with the same commitment to excellence through objectivity and discovery.
During the initial survey at the electrical incident site, Bison electrical engineering experts evaluate the electrical systems, electric service entrance points and breaker boxes. They look for burn patterns, explosion patterns, evidence of arcing or beading and other signs of electrical failure. If a structure has burned to the ground, they sift through the ashes for traces of hot spots or other areas of further interest, no detail is too small for their consideration.
Proven Results in Electrical Fires
Among their many forensic investigations, Bison electrical engineering experts have:
- linked the cause of a burn injury to previously-unknown contact between two components in an energized environment
- traced the cause of a fatal explosion to electrical failure of a flame sensor in a startup sequence of controls
- found design flaws in a process control system that resulted in a plant explosion
As needed, the results of Bison Engineering’s electrical incident investigations can be presented with the highest quality computer graphics and 3-D animation—techniques that transform scientific data into simplified illustrations for juror review. Bison electrical experts are also available as expert witnesses who present facts clearly and with authority during courtroom testimony and cross examination.
For comprehensive electrical engineering investigations in electrical fires, electrical failures or electrical incidents of any kind, Bison Engineering is ready, 24 hours a day, to serve you with unparalleled scientific expertise and proven integrity.
