Electrical fires account for a
sizable percentage of home and business fires. In most cases, improper wiring,
overloaded circuits, quick fixes and faulty appliances lead to these
devastating accidents. There are many important electrical fire safety tips and
rules that will help in the prevention of electrical fires in your home or
workplace.
Use appliances that meet safety
requirements. Only buy electric appliances that have been tested and approved
for meeting required safety guidelines. The community expects that the
electrical and gas appliances they use are safe. Legislation requires retailers
to ensure that most domestic appliances sold comply with appropriate safety
standards. Such appliances will have a seal of approval from a recognized
testing laboratory such as United Laboratories (UL) or NRTL.
