Are operating areas centrally disconnected from the power supply? (If so, which ones?) Note: Safety-relevant equipment/systems, such as fire protection systems or emergency lighting, must not be affected by the disconnection of power.
Are the mobile and stationary electrical equipment/systems (if still in operation) still checked according to DGUV regulation 3 (by a qualified electrician) and according to VdS 2871/clause 3602 (by a VdS-recognised expert)?
Notes
Cleaning/Minimisation of Operational Fire Loads
Are all operating rooms thoroughly cleaned before shutting down?

Are stocks of flammable finished/semi-finished goods reduced as far as possible? Indication of the reduction in %:
Is the storage of flammable materials in outdoor areas (as protection against arson) dispensed with?
Are indispensable outdoor storage areas for flammable materials located at a distance of 20 m from buildings and 10 m from property boundaries?

Notes
Safety Precautions with Regard to Fire Protection Equipment
If, in exceptional cases, fire alarm or extinguishing systems have to be shut down at short notice, is the insurer informed of the shutdown of the system?
Are fire protection-related compensation measures coordinated with the insurer?
Are servicing, inspections and maintenance work carried out by the company's own operating personnel, specialist companies, the VdS or other experts in accordance with the regulations and regularly on fire protection systems (BMA, extinguishing systems, fire protection gates, etc.)?
Is the alarm transmission of the fire alarm systems adapted to the possibly changed personnel situation?
Is it ensured in areas with extinguishing system wet groups that the building temperature does not drop below + 5 °C or that there is sufficient protection against freezing by other measures, e.g. redundant trace heating?
Are all fire protection gates and doors closed during a shutdown?
Notes
Safety Precautions on Buildings and Technical Equipment
Are vehicles parked on the premises in such a way that they do not pose a fire hazard to the buildings, i.e. in sprinkled areas or outside at a distance of at least 10 metres from buildings? Note: The garage regulations must be taken into account.
Are all water-carrying installations and pipes (fresh, heating, process and fire-fighting water) protected against frost if no secured and monitored heating of the buildings can be guaranteed?
