Electrical Cords

Here are some safety tips concerning electrical cords:

Always replace worn or damaged electrical cords or wires or have it repaired by a qualified person.
Keep cords in sight. Don't hide them under carpets or behind furniture. It is not safe to put electrical cords under mats or carpets even if they are taped down. The action of walking on these carpets will wear the protective covering on the cords.
Always use power bars with surge protection for stereos, entertainment systems and computers.
Never remove a plug by pulling on the cord.
Don’t use frayed cords.
Don’t allow cords to come in contact with electrical elements.
Don’t pick up tools or electrical appliances by cords.
Don’t rely on extension cords for permanent wiring.
