Things to keep in mind while working with or near electricity
Everyone needs electricity. The world will stop if we do not use it. There are many problems in the world but we cannot just stop using them, so we deal with every issue with proper precautions. Similarly, electrical appliances should also be used with utmost safety.
- Do NOT cover your extension cords with something on top. Many people tend to cover the extension cord with a cloth, carpet, etc. but it is not recommended. If any default occurs, you will not be able to know about it and in the worst case, if any fire catches up, it will spread out early.
- Do NOT use any damaged cords or appliances. If you can see the internal wire or anything else of the appliance, keep that aside and use a new one.
- Do NOT use water in case of fire, use a fire extinguisher for it. Water is a poor conductor of electricity which will produce more harm to the surrounding.
- Do NOT use any appliances that cause a spark when you plug in. Also, do not use any other thing which gives you a minor shock or buzz when using it.
Check out these important signs which let you know that you will have to call an electrician.

- Wires loosening up
- Lights flickering or dimming
