A device for protecting a lineman or firefighter from an electrical fire that occurs while working within a manhole. The device dispenses a non-conductive amount of hydrated super absorbent polymer having fire suppression and extinguishing properties without creating an electrically conductive environment. The admixture can cling to walls, ladders, clothing and skin. The admixture is capable of encapsulating noxious gases produced by electrical fires and prevent the release of toxic gases. |
