🔍 Key Concepts

• Class C fires involve energized electrical equipment • Extinguishing agents can differ in electrical conductivity, cooling effect, and residue left behind • Safety of the firefighter and prevention of electric shock are critical when equipment is still energized

💭 Think About

• Ask yourself: What makes a fire involving energized electrical equipment different from a fire in wood or liquids? • Which property of the extinguishing agent matters most when you must apply it directly to live electrical components? • If the equipment cannot be de-energized immediately, what characteristic must the agent have to avoid creating a new hazard?

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify which choice directly addresses safety around live electricity rather than cost or performance • Eliminate options that would still allow current to flow through the agent onto the person using it • Confirm that the characteristic you select is the one that prevents electrical shock or short-circuiting when sprayed on energized equipment
