Gas Cans
and Static
Electricity

STATIC ELECTRICITY
The Petroleum Equipment Institute (PEI) began investigating mysterious
refueling fires in the mid-1990s. PEI learned that static electricity—the same
thing that shocks you after you drag your feet on the carpet—can ignite gasoline
vapors at the pump.
Almost 200 incidents have been reported to PEI that appear to be related to
static electrical discharge.
Three Rules for Safe Refueling
1. Turn off engine.
2. Don't smoke.
3. Never re-enter your vehicle while refueling.
Are Cell Phones Responsible? No. PEI has not documented a single incident
that was caused by a cellular telephone.
Cell phones continue to be cited as causing fires at the pump in e-mails
circulating on the Internet. So far, PEI has been unable to document any
incidents that were sparked by a cellular telephone. In fact, many researchers
have tried to ignite fuel vapors with a cell phone and failed.
PEI still advises against using any electronic device that might distract the
motorist during the refueling process.
