The fire would be extinguished but would leave the area dangerous from electric shock. Eliminate the power source before or immediately after extinguishing the fire with water and do not approach the source of the fire until the power source is completely switched off.

Why does a bladderwrack flops onto the ground?
Well , when it is in the water it floats but the roots are keeping it down however when the water goes it drops because there is gravity.
What is meant by switch gears in electrical engineering?
To protect the system from faults the equipment used is known as switch gearAnswerSwitchgear is the generic name for transmission and distribution equipment designed control, disconnect, and protect an electrical system. Switchgear includes circuit breakers, fuses, and isolators (US term: disconnectors). As well as being used to control circuits by opening or closing those circuits, circuit breakers are designed to interruptand to close onto electrical faults so must incorporate means of extinguishing the arcing associated with such faults. Circuit breakers, therefore, have a essential role in responding to protection systems. Isolators are non-load breaking switches, designed to isolate equipment (including circuit breakers) from high voltages, so that the equipment can be maintained.
Do you need to use different pipe dies for plumbing than electrical?
YES! There IS a difference.Plumbing dies cut a thread tapered from start to finish at the rate of 3/4" in 12 inches, usually 3/4" of thread length on 1/2" or 3/4" pipe.Conduit uses the same size thread with all the taper in a very short distance at the pipe-end of the thread so that the thread is straight and a lock-nut or coupling may thread all the way onto the pipe without binding and without the use of a wrench.I've been doing electrical since 1947, and still at it.The Old Fat Man
What Precaution Should Be Taken While Measuring Resistance with the help of multimeter?
you should take care to ensure that the circuit components being analysed are isolated from the power supply. only carry these test out if you are completely confidnet that your safety is guarranteed from a possable electric shock. you should also take care to ensure that the electrical contact restistance across your fingers and hand do not give a false reading where they would allow a leakage of small electrical current thruogh your fingers if you choose to hold your measuring probes of the meter onto the restance - component with your fingers directly. although this isnt reccomended . you should use approved equipment designed to connect to any terminals or components safely ; crocdile clips .
Can fire sprinklers set off an electrical fire in a Subway Station as the water runs off the platform and onto the tracks?
no. no.
What kinds of fire should you not use a water based fire extinguisher on?
Foam spray extinguishers are not recommended for fires involving electricity, but are safer than water if inadvertently sprayed onto live electrical apparatus.
Why did firemen shut off main electrical supply during fire?
The electricity could help fuel a fire if exposed to it . <><><> It is also rather dangerous to pump thousands of gallons of water onto live electrical components.
What happens if you spray oil onto fire?
Vwoom!!!!
What must be done if you find a fire anywhere?
get water and throw it onto the fire
What happens to soil when water runs onto it?
It gets wet!
What is it called when helicopters drop water onto a fire?
many can drop about 200 gallons, but it is usually fire retardant rather than water
Why does fire go out when water is thrown onto it when water contains the two things a fire needs hydrogen and oxygen?
This is due to the weight of the water on the fire and the difference of temperature. water is one of the few substances that cannot burn.
What happens when water in the air condenses onto tiny pieces of?
cloud
How does fire affect water?
Water doesn't always make fire worse. If you get a candle light on fire and pour a bucket of water on it, it will stop burning. Fire can make the water evaporate if you pour too little water onto a blaze of fire. Technically, it depends on how much water you use.
How do you make a grease fire?
Throw water onto over-hot chip pan.
How do you get the fire arrows if you have sages after the water temple?
Immediately after Water Temple, play Sun's Song until it's at sunrise. Then shoot the sun and fire arrows will fall onto the platform.
