NFPA 1126 codes pertain to which category?

• A. Fireworks
• B. Close Proximity Pyrotechnics
• C. Illumination Effects
• D. Laser Safety

Answer: (B)

NFPA 1126 codes pertain to close proximity pyrotechnics—devices used in near proximity to an audience or performers. This standard sets the safety requirements for planning, handling, training, protective measures, set distances, barriers, crowd management, and emergency procedures when pyrotechnic effects are fired close to people. The emphasis is on controlling heat, sparks, and debris hazards and ensuring a safe environment during stage or event effects. It’s distinct from standards governing outdoor fireworks displays or lasers, which have their own separate codes.
