Electricity travels well across water. It will produce electric shocks or short circuits if used in flames involving electrical equipment.
- Unlike fire extinguishers, which use water or foam to put out flames, electrical fires require a non-conductive chemical to put out.
- Water is conductive, thus anyone attempting to put out an electrical fire with it risks electrocution.
- As a result, fires involving electrical equipment are not extinguished by water.
- LPG is a preferable home fuel since it does not emit smoke or unburned carbon particles, which can cause respiratory issues.
- Because paper has a low ignition temperature, it quickly catches fire, but when wrapped around an aluminium pipe, the temperature is decreased owing to the aluminium.
