Certain dry chems' can be corrosive to electrical equipment. A fog spray pattern is a good way to fight an electrical fire. Then when oil filled trannies are involved, use the foam!

I really like what these firefighters did, absolutely flood the entire area with foam. Here at Sequoyah, our procedure is the same.
