Abstract
Because of the increase in the popularity of camping and leisure culture, camping car fires have increased consistently with an increase in the number of camping car registrations. In this study, we analyzed the causes of a fire that broke out at midnight in a parked camping car. The camping car was parked with the engine stopped. The results of fire investigation suggest that the fire broke out because the finish of the battery cable outlet of an iron case installed at the bottom of the car was of bad quality. The bad finish resulted in damage to the battery cable coating. Thus, the battery cable conductor made contact with the iron case, resulting in a short-circuit. Keywords: Camping Car Fire, Fire Investigation, Electrical Fire, Fire Case Analysis
