ALWAYS CONSULT A CERTIFIED ELECTRICIAN
IF YOU ARE NOT SURE
- Inspect electrical cords and plugs regularly,
discard them it they are worn or frayed
- Never pull the cord to remove the plug from a
socket; this can wear the cord and increase the risk of a short
curicuit and a fire; can also creates a shock hazard
- Eliminate octopus connectons; plugging multiple
cords into a single socket can overload the circuit
- Never break off the third prong on a plug - always
replace two pronged sockets with three pronged sockets
- Never use extension cords as permanent wiring
- Never lay electrical cords under carpets
- Always keep electrical cords away from sources
of heat and water
- Always use safety plugs in unused outlets to protect
children
