Problems of safety of gas systems in the places of residence of agricultural workers

Abstract

The article presents the results of the analysis of emergencies that occurred in 2011-2020 in Russia as a result of improper operation of gas stoves in residential houses of rural residents, as well as the results of studying the circumstances that preceded the occurrence of these emergencies. Separate provisions of the relevant regulatory legal acts of Russia and departmental regulatory documents of Russia in relation to the placement of gas stoves and their operation in residential houses of rural residents are given. The ongoing gasification of rural areas of Russia, aimed at improving the quality of life of its population, will significantly change the lives of millions of people in rural areas, primarily those who still had to heat stoves with wood or coal, and at the same time will require solving the problem of preventing emergencies during the placement and operation of gas stoves, which is still relevant and unresolved in full.
