Question 3684Deck General70% to pass
Fire extinguishers of sizes III, IV, and V are designated as _______________.
AI Explanation
The correct answer is C) semi-portable.
Fire extinguishers of sizes III, IV, and V are designated as semi-portable, which means they are larger than portable extinguishers but can still be moved around by a person. These larger extinguishers are not permanently fixed in place like a fixed extinguisher system, but they are also not as easily transported as a small, handheld portable extinguisher.
The other options are incorrect because A) fixed extinguishers are permanently installed, B) disposable extinguishers are meant to be discarded after use, and D) portable extinguishers are the smallest, hand-carried type.
