What is the primary focus of NFPA standards?

The primary focus of NFPA (National Fire Protection Association) standards is on fire safety and prevention. NFPA standards are developed to provide guidelines and best practices aimed at minimizing the risk of fire-related hazards and ensuring safety for both people and property. These standards cover various aspects of fire protection, including design, construction, installation, and maintenance of fire protection systems. By focusing on fire safety, the NFPA helps establish protocols that can significantly reduce the potential for fire incidents and their consequences. This focus on preventing fires and protecting lives is crucial in various settings, including residential, commercial, and industrial environments.
