520  ‎$a‎Cooking range top fires account for over 91,000 home fires each year, causing over 300 and 3,700 annual deaths and injuries, respectively, based on data from 20062010 . In addition, many cooking fire incident and injuries go unreported to fire departments and are not included within the data. Technologies potentially capable of preventing these fires have been considered and reviewed for the past 30 years. Beginning in 2010, Hughes started working with the Fire Protection Research Foundation (FPRF) to review the potential effectiveness of various technological options. A workshop conducted as part of that project considered the emergence of commercial products on the market and identified the need to develop standardized tests and criteria to evaluate the performance and effectiveness of such devices. This report has summarized and analyzed the results of two live fire test series conducted to form the basis for such a test protocol. The tests conducted were intended to: 1) develop the basic protocols for conducting standardized tests; 2) develop performance criteria for conduct of valid tests; and, 3) develop performance criteria for assessing fire protection performance of prevention technologies. The scope of this work was limited to assessing only fire preventing technologies, not those that would contain or alert after ignition
