Don't know if this was already stated, but an easy way to remember the different types of extinguishers is:

A - Ash. This type is for burnables such as wood, paper, trash, etc.

B - Boiling. For burnable liquids such as fuels, oils, paints, plastics.

C - Current. Fires involving "live" electrical type items.
