Subject: Hydrogen Peroxide solutions and fire extinguishers

Can anybody tell me if type ABC fire extinguisher can be used for Hydroge
n 
Peroxide solution related fire instead of type A fire extinguisher?  Is t
here a 
critical concentration above which ABC extinguisher becomes useless or 

dangerous?

Thank you.
