You should call 911 and maybe while your at it, throw some water on it :)
Yes and No! Electrical fires are not really fires, the electrical sparks cause the ignition of the combustibles around it. Thos fires can have a blanket used in their extinguishment. The power source needs to be removed to stop the sparking.
A fire blanket or a non-flammable blanket can help stop a small fire from spreading because when you place then blanket over the fire it cuts off the oxygen to the fire. Cutting this part out of the fire triangle stops the fire from spreading and growing. Fire triangle = Heat, Fuel, Oxygen.
Fire requires three things: heat, fuel, and oxygen. If you take one of them away, then the fire will stop. By wrapping a heavy blanket around a burning object, it blocks oxygen in the air from getting to the fire and the fire goes out. This is why a fire blanket is standard safety equipment in school science labs.
You can stop a fire without water by using a fire extinguisher, sand, baking soda, or a fire blanket. These materials work by smothering the fire and cutting off its oxygen supply, thereby extinguishing it. Be sure to always have a fire safety plan in place and know how to properly use these firefighting materials.
1. Stay Calm.2. Take Fire Blanket Out of Package3.) Hold The Fire Blanket handles, and be sure that your hands are protected by the blanket.4.) Approach Fire and place blanket on top of the fire. Do not worry about smothering the fire with force, just allow the fire resistant materials to smother the fire.5.) Remove the blanket from the area - unlike a fire extinguisher, there is no messy clean up.6.) Sometimes the Fire Blanket may be used multiple times depending on the severity of the fire.
To stop a fire, you can use a fire extinguisher, water, or a fire blanket. Make sure to follow proper safety procedures and aim at the base of the flames to smother the fire. If the fire is too large to handle, evacuate and call emergency services.
s when theres a fire the blanket would put it out
when there is a fire.

before you go to bed, unplug all your plugs, if a fire has started then use a fire blanket, extinguisher or sand It really helps, honest
throwing a blanket over a small contained fire stops oxygen to the fire .to stop a fire you need to take out one of the three elements that are needed for a fire to burn witch are heat /oxygen/fuel
