Class D fire extinguishers are needed in industrial facilities where ignitable metals are present, and Class K extinguishers are required to fight grease fires in commercial kitchens.

Electrical Power Cord Fire Safety Tip: a power cord or extension cord can overheat and cause a fire when used improperly. Make sure you are using a properly rated cord. Make sure your cords are not cracked, frayed or damaged in any way. And never plug too many devices into one extension cord. Overloading and a fire can occur.
