Which quantity is permitted in one Flammable Storage Cabinet?

• A. 25 gals of class 1A
• B. 60 gals category 1/2/3
• C. 120 gals of category 4 or class 1B
• D. 200 gals of category 2

Answer: (A)

The main idea is that a Flammable Storage Cabinet is limited by how much flammable liquid it can safely hold, and the limit depends on how hazardous the liquid is. The more hazardous the liquid, the smaller the amount you’re allowed to store in one cabinet. For the most hazardous group (Class 1A), the permissible amount in a single cabinet is about 25 gallons. This smaller quantity helps keep the fire load manageable and supports safer spill control and compartmentalization. So, storing 25 gallons of Class 1A fits within the typical cabinet rating. The other options exceed the commonly allowed amounts for their respective categories, so they aren’t permitted in one cabinet.
