        abstract = {The increasing adoption of electric vehicles (EVs) has raised significant concerns regarding fire safety, particularly due to the unique risks associated with lithium-ion battery systems. This research presents a comprehensive fire prevention and precaution system designed specifically for EVs, addressing the potential hazards posed by circuit malfunctions and short circuits. The proposed system integrates advanced detection technologies, including infrared monitoring, to identify early signs of thermal anomalies, alongside a robust suppression mechanism. This dual approach not only enhances the safety of passengers but also mitigates environmental risks associated with EV fires. The two types of threats - electrical hazards and traditional hazards, each equipped with tailored detection and suppression solutions. Through systematic testing and evaluation, this study demonstrates the effectiveness of the fire prevention system in reducing response times and improving overall vehicle safety. The findings underscore the necessity for proactive fire safety measures in the evolving landscape of electric mobility, ultimately contributing to safer urban environments and enhanced public confidence in electric vehicle technology.},
