When combating a class "C" fire, which of the following dangers may be present?
• Class C fires involve energized electrical equipment • Consider what additional hazards electricity introduces beyond flames and heat • Think about what burning insulation, plastics, and wiring can produce
• Which option specifically mentions hazards that are unique to or especially associated with electrical equipment? • Which dangers listed could also be common with other classes of fire (like liquid or solid fuels) and are not specific to electrical fires? • How might firefighting methods for electrical fires differ because of the risk of current flow and materials used in wiring?
• Confirm what Class C fire means in standard fire classification (A, B, C, D, K). • Identify which choice relates directly to electrical hazards such as current flow or energized components. • Check which option mentions byproducts of burning electrical insulation or wiring rather than general fire or water damage.
