Water used in extinguish fire is usually impure and contains dissolved impurities and therefore becomes electrically conducting. For this obvious reason if it is used to put off fire in an electrical equipment, may conduct electricity and prove fatal to the person throwing water. However, at other places and incidents where no electrical circuits are involved, it may be used
