Different types of fires require different extinguishing methods. Here’s a guide to understanding fire classes:
1. Class A: Ordinary combustibles like wood, paper, and cloth. Use water or foam extinguishers.
2. Class B: Flammable liquids like gasoline and oil. Use foam or dry chemical extinguishers.
3. Class C: Electrical fires. Use non-conductive extinguishers like CO2 or dry chemical.
4. Class D: Metal fires. Use specialized extinguishing agents like dry powder.
5. Class K: Cooking oils and fats. Use wet chemical extinguishers.
