What fire extinguishers are forbidden when fighting electrical equipment fire?

Answer:

Foam extinguisher. Because it sprays foam and water film, it is very dangerous to conduct electricity,Water based fire extinguisher, the principle is the same as the last
Fire extinguishing appliances that are electrically conductive are forbidden to fire when electrical equipment is fire. No fire extinguisher or dry sand can be used to extinguish the fire when rotating motor is in fire. Under water mist, fire water is allowed in generator, transformer, oil circuit breaker and cable installation.
Foam extinguisherBecause foam and water are conductive substances, they are forbidden to be used in substations. When the electrical equipment is on fire, the electric equipment should be deactivated, the fire will be cut off after the power supply is cut off, and the foam extinguisher shall be banned when the fire is put out. Because there is water in the foam, if the power supply is not completely cut off, the utility model will leak electricity and hurt people.
