💭 Think About

• Which of these options describes a safety hazard to the firefighter, and which describe side effects on the equipment? • For electrical fires, is the main concern usually how well it puts the fire out, or what happens to the electrical/electronic gear afterward? • Among the choices, which issue would be serious enough to be called the MAIN objection, rather than just an inconvenience?

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify which agents are recommended for Class C (electrical) fires and whether dry chemical is one of them • Check if dry chemical agents are generally electrically non‑conductive, especially compared with water or foam • Consider whether having to recharge an extinguisher is a normal consequence of use, or a special "objection".
