National Fire Protection Association

The National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) is an organization that develops and promotes standards, codes, and guidelines to reduce fire risks and improve safety. It conducts research, provides training, and publishes resources to help communities, businesses, and individuals prevent fires and respond effectively if they occur. The NFPA is best known for its comprehensive codes, like the NFPA 70 (National Electrical Code), which set safety requirements for electrical systems. Its goal is to protect people and property by encouraging best practices rooted in scientific research and industry expertise.
