Both n-Butane (R-600) and i-Butane (R600a) are also used as refrigerants. The three gases can also be mixed to achieve different properties, such as with R-290a, a mixture of isobutane and propane. Just as with propellants, LPG gases also replaced chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) as refrigerants, to preserve the ozone layer.
I wouldn't expect that a refrigerant leak could get to just the right ratio for a fuel air bomb accidentally.

It will all come out - investigators will interview all the workers and find samples of the actual materials used.
Yeah. Stoopid Stoopid Stoopid!
(yeah I know it’s misspelled)
ISIS back door tactics (reverse) or IRA Type Brits getting even with Muslims for recent London Terrorist attacks!!!. Fire begets fire!!! The Mayor of London and PM are asleep at the wheel, as are British politicians!!! Same scenario coming to the USA. Democrat Party has not got a clue!!! In fact,...they side with the terrorists...Americans beware...the Democrats are destroying your country!!!
Refrigerator fires are not that uncommon.
I personally know of three instances refrigerator electrical fires (2 contained within the fridge steel housing, the other set the wood floor on fire).
All three caused by defective Solid State relays on three different mfg brands.
Read the article and research US Consumer Appliance recalls for further info -
“Across Britain, from January 2011 to March 2014, 855 fires were reported to have been started by fridge-freezers, accounting for 7 per cent of fires caused by electrical products. Not all blazes are due to faults in the appliances. Faulty wiring, incorrect installation or adjustment and lack of proper maintenance can lead to fires, too.”
When it is filled with bomb-making materials
Never store the blasting caps in the frig with the C-4.
Yeah. It’s them dang moozlim refrigerators that does it. And they always explode in a fireball and burn everything in the area. Airline jets into sjyscrapers, suicide belts, rampaging vehicles on sidewalks, hammers and knives! Is this just Moh’s latest clever improvisation?
The UKanians have been noticing their new “earth safe” refrigerators are going on fire and exploding with increasing regularity - no terrorist or hooligan activity required - so apparently it *can* get to that point.
One case in point from last year: http://www.dailystar.co.uk/news/latest-news/492544/samsung-fridge-explosion-RS21NCNS-recall-fault
Hmmm... that reminds me of this:
According to the company that seems to have claimed having done the work (not any more, for some reason they took the page down since the fire), they installed “ACM Rainscreen over-clad”
http://web.archive.org/web/20170614034527/www.harleyfacades.co.uk/page/grenfell-tower
“ACM Rainscreen” is:
> a flat surface comparable to much thicker aluminum, at a more reasonable price
> 2 layers of aluminum sandwiching a resin core
> Fire rated cores are also available
http://northclad.com/products/acm/
Maybe they really did use a fire-rated product, but the cladding going up in flames quickly and setting the whole side of the building alight matches other fires in Melbourne and Dubai where plastic-filled aluminum cladding burned.
Most of the occupants actually made it out of that one. Also, that wasn’t exactly a willing choice - we had the only supplies of helium and we refused to sell it to Nazi Germany. They didn’t have a choice but to use hydrogen and hope like hell nothing happened. :P
Never thought of that.
I remember several stories from people in the towers - after the first plane hit, those in the other tower were instructed (by intercom) to stay put. Nobody had any way of knowing at the time, but that turned out to be a very bad idea.
I’m wondering if they decided to be cheap and quietly installed the non-fire-rated panels and pocketed the difference instead of using the fire-rated units. It would not be the first time.
“The Amish mostly qualify as off-grid IMHO. :P”
Wait...are we talking Amish, or “Amish”?
