Fire alert was an alert status aboard Federation starships in the 23rd and 24th centuries designated to prepare the crew for possible fires aboard the ship, usually caused by damage to ship systems during battle or other situations.
In 2265, Captain Kirk ordered all decks to go to fire alert when the USS Enterprise passed through the galactic barrier, as the phenomena they were experiencing was causing circuitry blowouts to the ship's systems. (TOS: "Where No Man Has Gone Before")
In 2384, a fire alert was issued when a fire was reported in the starboard warp nacelle of a Type 9 shuttlecraft in the shuttlebay of the USS Dauntless. Four firefighers of Squadron 5 from Firefighting, a section of Security, were sent to intervene the fire. They were assisted by the ship's fire fighting system. This situation was reported to the main bridge, which showed the status of the fire in a operation console. (PRO: "Mindwalk")
