Unfortunately, none. The classes of fire are A, B, C, D and K. However, the ABC extinguisher can be used for MOST fires. It is not effective on Class D fires (metals such as magnesium) and should not be used on large grease fires, such as a deep fat fryer (Class K). Most ABC extinguishers are a dry chemical type, such as ammonium tri-phosphate. You should avoid using those on sensitive electronic equipment (computers) due to damage to the equipment.
