For this Mother’s Day, Got Electric is sharing electric safety tips to make life safer for everyone.
• Outlet covers: This is important! There are 120 volts of electricity running though those outlets. Better to be safe than sorry, so cover your outlets!
• Carbon Monoxide Alarms: Make sure your home has working #carbonmonoxide detectors. If you ever smell gas in your home, leave the premises with your family immediately and call 911.
• Loose electrical cords: #Loosecords can be an attractive toy to a baby and a major trip hazard to a toddler. Make sure to wrap cords tightly, using Velcro wraps or zip ties.
• Electronic Devices: Never allow children to charge electronic devices unattended or in bed. The batteries can overheat, especially if the child falls asleep and the device is covered by a pillow or blankets.
It is important to have conversations with your children about safety outside of your home and in the community. Make sure they always stay away from power lines and utility poles!
Safety is Got Electric’s top priority. Wishing Moms and everyone else to have a safe and happy Mother’s Day!
