Do’s and Don’ts to Keep You Safe: Never overload electrical outlets. Only use extension cords as a temporary solution. Do not place power cords under rugs, carpets or furniture. Buy products which meet the Underwriter’s Laboratory (UL) standard for safety. Install smoke alarms outside bedrooms and once on each floor. Turn appliances off before plugging them in. Keep electrical appliances away from wet areas. Keep heaters and halogen lamps away from draperies and other combustible materials. Use only three-slot outlets for appliances with three-prong plugs. Use safety devices to help child-proof outlets. Don’t turn a circuit back on before identifying why it was turned off.
