🔍 Key Concepts

• Fire classes (A, B, C) and which agents are safe for each • Effect of a straight stream of water on burning fuels and live electrical equipment • Difference between solid combustibles vs. fuel/oil and energized electrical fires

💭 Think About

• For each choice, decide what is actually burning: solid material, fuel/oil, or energized electrical equipment? • Think about when water might spread the burning material instead of cooling it safely. • Which situation would make using water dangerous because of electrical shock or splashing burning liquids?

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which option is primarily a Class A fire (ordinary combustibles: wood, cloth, paper, etc.) • Eliminate any option where flammable liquids or oils are likely to be present in the burning area. • Eliminate any option that clearly involves energized electrical equipment where water could cause shock.
