Question 10/33

A storm blew down the wall of a limber building. The failing wall broke electrical wiring, which short-circuited and the resultant sparks caused a fire. The lire brigade used water to put out the fire and the water caused damage to the unburnt contents. What is the proximate cause of the damage to the unburnt contents?
