What is first step of fire response?

The first step of fire response is to ensure personal safety by assessing the situation and determining whether it is safe to act. If safe, the next action is to alert others and call emergency services. If the fire is manageable and you are trained, you can attempt to extinguish it using an appropriate fire extinguisher. However, if the fire is large or spreading quickly, evacuating the area immediately is the priority.


What is the sequence of action to do if there is fire?

In the event of a fire, first, remain calm and assess the situation. If the fire is small and manageable, attempt to extinguish it using a fire extinguisher. If the fire is large or spreading, immediately evacuate the area, alert others, and follow the evacuation route. Once outside, call emergency services to report the fire and do not re-enter the building until it's safe.


What you do in the event of an electrical fire?

Often turning off the power will cause an electrical fire to go out, so unplug the device or flip the circuit breaker. You can also use carbon dioxide fire extinguishers on electrical fires. In computer server rooms, there are sometimes HALON fire extinguishers built in. Halon isn't poisonous, but it displaces all of the oxygen from the room, so you want to GET OUT of a room where a halon fire extinguisher is used.
