Abstract
A safety ladder for protecting a lineman or firefighter from a flash fire. The ladder has the appearance of a conventional ladder but include fluid conduits that allow for dispensing of a fire suppressants to be sprayed over an individual using the ladder should a fire erupt. The rungs of the ladder have spray nozzles located along the bottom of the rung so that they do not interfere with normal use of the ladder. A pressurized container of fire suppressants is coupled to the ladder, through a battery powered solenoid valve. The solenoid valve can be operated by the individual using the ladder by use of a triggering device, or remotely by an individual positioned apart from the ladder by a remote triggering device. The triggering device can be operated electrically or by radio frequency, can be temperature sensitive, or can be manually bypassed.
