What is the color of the symbol for a type C extinguisher?

Green
Red
Blue
Yellow

The correct answer is: Blue

The color of the symbol for a type C extinguisher is blue. Type C extinguishers are specifically designed for electrical fires, which involve energized electrical equipment. The blue symbol clearly denotes that this extinguisher is suitable for such hazards, allowing users to quickly identify the correct extinguisher in case of an emergency involving electrical equipment. Each type of fire extinguisher is associated with a specific color code to ensure easy recognition. For instance, type A extinguishers use a green symbol for ordinary combustibles, while type B extinguishers use a red symbol for flammable liquids. The blue symbol for type C distinguishes it from these other types, emphasizing the need for care when dealing with live electrical equipment.
