Many of the fires caused by recent large earthquakes are said to be caused by electricity fires (electric fires). A seismic breaker is an effective device that detects a large shaking of an earthquake and automatically shuts off the supply of electricity and prevents electric fires.
Yokohama City supports the purchase and installation of seismic breakers (simple type) for people living in areas subject to the "Earthquake Fire Countermeasures Policy in the Yokohama City Earthquake Disaster Prevention Strategy".
We are pleased to announce that the application period has been extended until November 30, 2020, but it will be extended until January 29, 2021.
