Always keep electrical stay away from water and moisture. Whether it's on or off, if a plugged-in appliance falls or is accidentally dropped into the water, don't hurry to retrieve or unplug it. Be shut off the power to the corresponding circuit at once. After appliance can be unplugged and removed from the water. When has dried thoroughly, please let the electrician evaluate whether or not it's fit for continued use.
When an appliance repeatedly trips a circuit breaker, blows a fuse, or gives you shocks, needs to be attention, these are signs that something is wrong. Prevent further and possibly more dangerous – malfunctions from occurring by immediately unplugging the appliance and discontinuing use until a professional electrician can inspect it, make repairs, and ultimately declare the appliance safe.
Install suitable expandable braided sleeving to keep cable sleeves not damaged. Installing them in your place of need is easy to prevent severe electrical injuries – and at very little cost.
Make sure you're using the right size circuit breakers and fuses. If fuses and circuit breakers aren't the right size and wattage rating to match the specifications of their circuits, sometimes they will fail right when you most need them to perform.
Protect kids with braided wire sleeves. The braided wire sleeve prevents babies and small children from sticking their fingers and other objects into unoccupied receptacles, protecting them against shock and electrocution.
Replace missing or broken wall plates. They're not just there for the looks – wall plates also protect your fingers from making contact with the electrical wiring behind them. Broken wall plates, or the absence of them altogether, can be especially dangerous in the dark.
Keep electrically powered yard-care tools dry. Whether it's raining, just finished raining, or you've recently run the sprinklers, never attempt yard work with electrically powered tools in wet conditions. Protect yourself from shock and electrocution by keeping your electric hedge trimmer.
Match the light bulb's wattage rating to the lamp. Always pick for a light bulb with a wattage that’s equal to or less than the maximum wattage listed on the lamp – too strong a bulb can lead to overloaded lamp wiring, as well as fire.
Be kind to your nylon cable sleeves. Take care to treat nylon cable sleeves gently – never nail or tightly tack them down, and regularly check to make sure that they're not pinched between or underneath furniture. Excessive pressure on nylon cable sleeves can damage insulation (exposing the conductor), or compress the conducting wire, which can lead to overheating and put you at risk for an electrical fire.
