SAFETY & SECURITY
Faulty wiring is a prime cause of fires, with the United States Fire Administration (USFA), part of FEMA (Federal Emergency Management Agency), reporting that electrical fires annually cause an estimated 485 deaths and injure almost 2,300 more individuals.1 Proper wiring by Enterprise Electric is the safest way to ensure long-term, trouble-free operations.
In addition to preventing fires through quality installation, Enterprise Electric can provide additional protection for your property and employees with fire and security systems. In 2007, direct property loss due to fire was $14.6 billion and the total burden of fire on the U.S. economy is estimated to be around $320 billion/year. 2 In 2007, there were over 700,000 burglaries at non-residential sites (commercial offices, industrial facilities, stores, etc.). Fifty-eight percent of these crimes occurred at night.3
