The key takeaways are the fire triangle which consists of heat, fuel and oxygen, the different classes of fires, common fire causes and what to do in case of a fire emergency.

The three elements of the fire triangle are heat, fuel and oxygen. A fire can only occur when all three elements are present and in the right proportions.

The four main classes of fire are: Class A fires which involve solid combustibles like wood, paper and textiles; Class B fires which involve flammable liquids like petrol, paints and solvents; Class C fires which involve flammable gases; and Class D fires which involve combustible metals.
