Jakarta, Spasi-id.com - using mobile or mobile phones at the gas station is forbidden. In fact, there's a warning sign containing a result of the ban on cell phones playing while refueling.
The rules against cell phone are deliberately applied because of the so-called use of cell phones potentially cause an explosion at a gas station.
But is it true that cell phones in the gas station can cause fires? Before, to discuss the consequences, it's best to understand what cell phones are before understanding the reasons behind the ban.
From the site of Science ABC, it is recognized that there is electromagnetic radiation on cell phones. So it's considered to be a source of concern because it brings so much energy that it causes the spark potential to cause massive damage to the gas station.
Electromagnetic radiation appears because when cell phones are used, cell phones are connected wirelessly. On the one hand, cell phones are only coated in thin externality with small electronic components.
The relationship between the cell phone and the cell towers occurs via an electromagnetic pulse racing back to your cell towers and cell phones in seconds.
This wave's energy value is about 1.24 Megaelectron-Volt to 12.4.
Don't jump to conclusions that cell phone usage at the gas station could cause a fire. Because research says that in 2009 to 2006, there's not a single case of cell phone use leading to fires all over the world.
It's just, reported cause of a fire could have been caused from cell phone battery damage. Even though it's less likely to happen, because it's rarely a cell phone with a broken battery stays in use.
