Question

Which type of fire extinguisher for electrical fire?

Answer 1

There are different classes of fire accidents. Class C are generally referred to as electrical fire. There are different types of extinguishers used for each category and they depend on source, medium and the substance burning. For example flammable gas or liquid or inflammable material. For electrical fires water can't be used since it can further be fatal (can result  in electrocution) so a carbon dioxide extinguisher is preferable since it cuts off the supply of oxygen.
