The National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) is a nonprofit organization established in 1896, committed to promoting fire safety through comprehensive codes, standards, research, and educational programs. In healthcare, the NFPA establishes guidelines for fire protection and life safety in various settings, including hospitals. They also provide specific requirements for medical equipment electrical safety inspections, ensuring safe operation and preventing hazards. Relocatable Power Taps (RPTs) are permitted on patient care medical equipment when permanently attached, meeting UL requirements. Compliance with NFPA standards is essential for healthcare facilities to ensure patient and staff safety.
