Because CCl4 does not combustible reaction so not use fire extinguisher.

The structure of CCl4 is tetrahedral which is geometrically stable and other such as C2H2 has unsaturation moreover S has lone pair electrons in its hybrid d orbitals and H2 also has 1s bonding which the combustible heat energy is evident to break the relevant bond energy in comparison to CCl4

Give me few other example apart from ccl4 which is incombustible.

CCl4 is noncombustible because it is a stable compound.

Because it is used as fire extinguisher.

CCl4 is highly stable due to equal electronegativity of chloride,
So C-atom experience equal effect.
So C-atom experience equal effect.

Please, tell me any other example for non-combustible element.

Actually according to the organic chemistry, CCl4 cannot achieve any type of burning or charring in the presence of atmosphere.
So, it cannot control the process of combustion.
