Mapping trap. Under NFPA 10 the same letter denotes fires involving energised electrical equipment. The two readings are not interchangeable, so a value of C taken from a US-sourced data set must not be carried across unchecked.

editorial note
Re-check flag. ISO 3941:2026 introduces a class L for lithium-ion battery fires, which EN 2 does not have. The class is directly pertinent to batteries, so this vocabulary is to be re-checked if EN 2 is amended, or if the final labelling Implementing Act references a standard other than EN 2:2005.
