Fires are categorized into classes based on the materials that are burning and the type of extinguishing agents that are effective against them. The classes of fire are A (ordinary combustibles), B (flammable liquids and gases), C (electrical fires), D (combustible metals), and K (cooking oils and fats). Each class requires specific firefighting techniques and extinguishing agents to control and extinguish the fire effectively.

The advantages of gel fires over log fires is the lack of smoke or smell. Similarly, gel fires can be a cheaper alternative and are slightly safer than log fires.
Some forms of fires include wildfires, house fires, forest fires, and campfires. Fires can be categorized based on their location, size, cause, and the materials they consume.
Forest fires can happen anywhere
There are actually five classes of fire, A,B,C,D, and K.
There are actually FIVE classes of fires now defined for purpose of determining the type of extinguisher to use: A, B, C, D and K.

Fires are categorized into classes based on the materials that are burning and the type of extinguishing agents that are effective against them. The classes of fire are A (ordinary combustibles), B (flammable liquids and gases), C (electrical fires), D (combustible metals), and K (cooking oils and fats). Each class requires specific firefighting techniques and extinguishing agents to control and extinguish the fire effectively.
The type of fuel or source of heat. For example, A: ordinary combustibles, B: flammable liquids, C: electrical heat source, D: flammable metals, K: combustible cooking media (deep fat)
There are five classes of fire in South Africa. They are: Class A - Solid combustibles Class B - Liquid combustibles and gases Class C - Electrical fires Class D - Metal fires Class F - Consumeable liquids
Class A- ordinary combustibles, such as wood or paper- leaves an Ash Class B- liquids- such as oil, gasoline. Liquids Boil Class C- has a live electrical Current Class D- metals, such as magnesium. Metals can Dent Class K- a Kitchen fire, such as burning fat.
Classes of fire are categorized based on the type of material that is burning. Class A fires involve ordinary combustibles like wood, paper, and cloth. Class B fires involve flammable liquids and gases, such as gasoline or oil. Class C fires are electrical fires, and Class D fires involve combustible metals like magnesium or sodium. Each class requires specific extinguishing methods to safely put out the fire.

Different types of fire equipment are designed for various fire classes. For instance, water extinguishers are effective for ordinary combustibles (Class A fires), while foam extinguishers can address flammable liquids (Class B fires). For electrical fires (Class C), carbon dioxide (CO2) extinguishers are suitable, and dry chemical extinguishers can tackle multiple fire classes, including A, B, and C. Additionally, specialized equipment like Class D extinguishers is used for metal fires, and wet chemical extinguishers are ideal for cooking oil fires (Class K).
