  • class A fire.

Explanation from PART66Online

Fuel, oil and other flammable-liquid fires are classified as Class B. Class A covers ordinary solid combustibles such as wood or paper, and Class C covers energised electrical equipment, so neither fits a fuel or oil fire.

As fas as I know C is for gases/liquified gases and not for electrical fires - E stands for Elec fires.

B stands for Liquids/Liquifiable solids, thus it makes sense to me.
