when uncontrolled. Fire is a chemical reaction between oxygen and carbon in which heat and light energies are
released. Three things are required before a fire can occur. These are fuel, oxygen and source of ignition. This
combination causing combustion is frequently referred to as the fire triangle.
If all the three of these necessary elements are present in proper proportions, fire will occur. If any one of the three
is removed, fire is impossible. It is, therefore, important that we at all times prevent the triangle from becoming
complete by eliminating at least one side. It is, however, more advisable to remove at least two sides, only the fuel
and oxygen sides of fire triangle can be easily removed. Fuel may consist carbon or hydrocarbon. The fuel side of the
fire triangle is removed by removing the combustible materials, or by preventing hydrocarbon from leaking or
spilling into an atmosphere of air. This will prevent open fire. The oxygen side of the fire triangle is removed by
preventing air from getting into system containing combustible materials, carbon or hydrocarbon. The ignition side
of the fire triangle is controlled to some extent by proper guarding and a number of other mean, but those are so
many sources of ignition that it must be assumed that this side of the triangle is always present.
Types of Fire: Fire has been classified into fire categories – A, B, C, D & E.
CLASS A: Fire involving ordinary combustible materials like wood, paper, textiles, etc., where one cooling effect of
water is essential for the extinction of fires.
CLASS B: Fires in inflammable liquids like Oils, Solvents, Paints, etc, where a blanketing effect is essential.
CLASS C: Fires involving gaseous substances under pressure, where it is necessary to dilute the entering gas at a
very fast rate within.
CLASS D: Fires involving metals like magnesium, aluminum, zinc, potassium etc., where the burning metal is
reactive to water and which require special extinguishing media or technique.
CLASS E: Electrical Fires.
