Nfpa actively supports national electrical safety month, an annual campaign in may sponsored by the electrical safety foundation international (esfi), which works to raise awareness of potential home electrical hazards, the importance of electrical fire safety, and the safety of electrical workers.
To help reduce your risk, nfpa and esfi recommend that you have all electrical work done by a qualified electrician, including electrical inspections, when buying or remodeling a home. In the video below, brett brenner, president of esfi, offers tips residents can follow to help keep homes safer from electrical fires, in this age of smart home technology.
Electrical Safety Checks and Certificates
Electrical safety reminders only licensed electricians are permitted to work on building infrastructural electrical systems. Should a circuit breaker or other protective device “trip”, ensure that a licensed electrician checks the circuit and equipment and corrects problems before resetting the breaker. Report hazards (lack of protective guards or covers, damaged equipment, etc. ) to the building manager, department of facilities, environment, health, and safety office, or supervisor immediately. Discard any piece of equipment that gives you even the slightest shock. If the resistance through your body is lowered i. E. Standing in water or touching metal, even the slightest shock can be deadly.
Don't do it yourself! diy wiring can lead to electrical parts overheating, causing fires, shocks and even death. Don't run electrical leads outdoors or use equipment near water. Don't overload sockets. Plugging too many devices into one socket, and over-using extension leads, can cause overheating and fires. Do buy reputable electrical goods. Cheaper, 'unofficial' electrical products (such as phone chargers) may not meet safety regulations, increasing the risk of fire. Do let us make electrical inspections. Regular checks are the best way to be sure that electrical installations are safe, and to spot potential problems before it's too late. Read more at the electrical safety roundtable website.
