Can you put water on an electrical fire after unplugging?

Question

Anonymous · Answer

No, it is not safe to put water on an electrical fire, even after unplugging the source of electricity. Water conducts electricity and can cause the fire to spread or result in electric shock. It is recommended to use a Class C fire extinguisher specifically designed for electrical fires or to call the fire department for assistance.
