- Be sure appliance cords are in good condition and promptly repair
worn or frayed cords. Extend their life by pulling the plug, rather
than the cord to remove it from the outlet.
- When not in use, unplug all small appliances. Be particularly
careful using a hairdryer , as it can electrocute you if it falls
into a bath or basin of water while connected.
- Avoid piggyback connections. Overloading can occur if too many
cords are connected to outlets designed for only one or two plugs.
- Use special childproof plugs in electrical outlets to deter
children from poking.
- Use electric blankets according to the manufacturer instructions.
- Call a qualified electrician if you need electrical wiring
or repair, no matter how minor the job.
