Static charges and sparks are common. Spark energies produced by, or in the course of normal human activities, can reach levels high enough to ignite fires in some materials. If one considers sparks generated by the human body, the risk of ignition by static sparks in normal and enriched oxygen environments is predominately influenced by the nature of the material into which the spark discharges. Gases and vapors typically require extremely low energy levels compared to solid materials. Increases in oxygen concentrations lower ignition energy requirements in all materials.
