Prevent Accidents When Using Electrical Appliances
You must avoid any accidents when using electrical appliances. That´s why it is essential to take certain precautions, especially in the presence of children. You can choose specific measures so as not to suffer injuries from both direct and indirect contact.
Useful Suggestions to Avoid Unpleasant Accidents
- Keep your hands dry to use, plug, unplug, or connect any electrical appliance.
- Never be barefoot or have wet feet when using electrical appliances.
- Never touch electrical appliances while inside the bathtub or shower, for example.
- If you have to unplug an appliance, never pull the cord, but rather the insulating plug.
- It is better to avoid making connections in multiple plugs. Use a socket for each application.
- Do not place screens or route cables near the stove, fireplace, or other heat sources. Taking care of the state of electrical appliance insulation avoids the risk of accidents.
- If you need electrical installation with all the safety guarantees, it must be carried out by an authorized electrician.
- Protection devices are essential to avoid injuries. For example, a small circuit breaker or grounding is necessary so that in the event of any insulation failure, the metal parts of any electrical appliance discharges the electrical current to the ground, without affecting the user.
- If a device uses power, unplug it immediately and call a technician.
- If you need to clean an appliance, you have to disconnect it beforehand.
- Never use devices with broken plugs, bare wires, or damaged plugs.
- To change a bulb, disconnect the corresponding circuit breaker beforehand.
