Hey Don,

We have 'Fire Ade' AFFF. Works great when used with the 'Blitzfire' deluge guns. No need to use any eductors, or aspirating nozzels. We have a seperate tank on the telesquirt pumper that holds, 250 gallons (i think) of the stuff.

These guns are easy to set up, and they flow up to 500gpm, and with the metering valve set on 6 on the telesquirt, we can deliver ample amounts of foam.

You are right on with stopping the current first to. We train all the time on simulated energized equipment fires. Operations may not exactly know what component, or cable tray, etc is involved in fire, so we have to be on the safe side when in those situations. smile
