Fire Origin Investigations

We identify where a fire started and what triggered the ignition. By examining burn patterns, battery condition, charger behavior, and environmental factors, we provide a reliable cause-of-origin assessment.

Fire Origin Investigations: Determining the Source and Cause

Understanding where a fire started and what triggered it is critical for safety, liability, and prevention. Our Fire Origin Investigation services provide comprehensive, evidence-based analysis to determine the cause of e-bike or facility fires, helping insurers, manufacturers, law firms, and property owners take informed action.

We examine burn patterns, charring, and material damage to identify the fire’s point of origin. This analysis helps distinguish between accidental ignition, electrical faults, or external causes.

Battery and Electrical Assessment

Lithium-ion batteries and charging systems are common fire sources. We inspect battery condition, charger behavior, and electrical circuitry to determine whether failures contributed to the ignition.

Environmental and External Factors

We consider surrounding conditions, including ventilation, temperature, humidity, and nearby combustible materials, to evaluate how external factors may have influenced fire development.

Root-Cause Determination

Combining physical evidence with technical expertise, we provide a defensible cause-of-origin assessment that clearly identifies whether the fire was due to:

• Battery or charger failure

• Equipment or component defect

• Human error or misuse

• Environmental or external factors

• 
  

Benefits of Fire Origin Investigations

By conducting detailed fire origin investigations, stakeholders gain:

• Clear understanding of how and why the fire started

• Evidence to support insurance claims, legal proceedings, or safety improvements

• Recommendations for preventive measures and safer operational practices

• Confidence in objective, expert-backed conclusions
