CLASSIFICATION of FUELS
Not
all fires are the same and they are classified according to
the type of fuel that is burning.
If
you use the wrong type of fire extinguisher on the wrong class
of fire, you can make matters worse.
It
is therefore very important to understand the 4 different fire
classifications:
Class
A - Wood, paper, cloth, trash, plastics. Solid
combustible materials that are not metals. (Class A
fires generally leave an Ash.)
Class
B - Flammable liquids: gasoline, oil, grease, acetone.
Any non-metal in a liquid state, on fire. This
classification also includes flammable gases. (Class B
fires generally involve materials that Boil or Bubble.)
Class
C - Electrical: energized electrical equipment. As
long as it's "plugged in," it would be considered a
class C fire. (Class C fires generally deal with
electrical Current.)
Class
D - Metals: potassium, sodium, aluminum, magnesium.
Unless you work in a laboratory or in an industry that uses
these materials, it is unlikely you'll have to deal with a
Class D fire. It takes special extinguishing agents
(Metal-X, foam) to fight such a fire.
