Class A fires are fueled by what?

Class A fire: flammable solids--wood, paper, cloth, things like that. Class B fire: flammable liquids Class C fire: electrical fire. A Class C fire is one where electric sparks ignite something else like wood or gasoline, but it's classified differently because it must be extinguished with a nonconductive agent to prevent the firefighters from being electrocuted. Class D fire: flammable metals Class K fire: kitchen fires. These are technically Class B fires--grease is a flammable liquid--but they are very hard to put out, so special extinguishing systems are used.


How can a class C fire be extinguished?

A class C fire involves energized electrical equipment. It should not be extinguished using water, as it can conduct electricity and cause electrocution. To extinguish a class C fire, it is recommended to use a dry chemical or carbon dioxide fire extinguisher designed for use on electrical fires.
