Top tips for keeping your home safe:
- Be careful not to overload sockets – Overloading plug sockets can be very dangerous and is a common cause of electrical fires.
- Keep electrical devices away from water – Water and electricity are a deadly combination. The risk of electrocution is high even if you use an electrical appliance with damp hands! Never plug a socket in with wet hands and keep electrical appliances well away from water.
- Unplug unused appliances – If you think about it, an unplugged appliance is 100% safer than one that is plugged in. A plugged-in appliance not only costs you more money on your electricity bills, but as it still uses power, there is the potential for it to overheat or cause a power surge. Top Tip: If your sockets are hard to reach, for example, behind bookshelf, sofa or wardrobe, you might want to invest in a smart plug or an energy-saving extension bar.
- Avoiding using Knock-off goods – Items manufactured outside the UK don’t always meet national safety standards. Items such as fake-brand hair straighteners, are one of the leading causes of electrical shocks and fires. We recommend you buy from manufacturers that have rigorously tested the items and have proof / certification of the safety standards.
