While working on a computer in the server room, you notice sparks and smoke coming from an electrical outlet. What should be your first course of action?
Use the nearest fire extinguisher on the sparking outlet
Cut off power to the affected area immediately
Call the fire department right away
Evacuate the server room and pull the fire alarm
The correct answer is to immediately cut off power to the affected area. In an electrical fire situation, the primary goal is to remove the source of electricity, which is fueling the fire. Using a fire extinguisher or water before cutting the power can be extremely dangerous, as electricity can conduct through these substances and potentially electrocute you. Evacuating the area, while important, should only be done after cutting the power if it's safe to do so. Calling the fire department is crucial, but it should be done after ensuring your immediate safety by cutting the power. Remember, in any fire situation, personal safety is the top priority, followed by preventing the spread of the fire.
