A child can be electrocuted because they do not know about electricity. Most accidents occur because people neglect or are not familiar with the tools which used. When a child is drinking oil (for example), then it is negligent mother did not put oil in place. English people say : “Safety is Common Sense”. It is human nature, if parents will always keep the family from danger, and the children will imitate what their parents do. Therefore, the primary prevention of accidents is to avoid dangerous actions that could be imitated by our children, and provide understanding about the dangers without scaring them. Let us look at our electrical equipment.
Socket.
Socket in contemporary homes, usually mounted low. This led to curious children to touch or put something. To avoid this accident, then you should close the unused socket, with a plaster. One socket should not be given too much weight. For example, One socket is used for refrigerator, TV, radio at once. When forced to accept too much power, it will damage the insulating sheath.
Plug.
Mothers who are afraid to hold the plug when they wanted to pull out of the socket, usually pull the cable. It’s actually very dangerous, plug is not the object that delivers an electric current. So, just pull the plug and of course your hands not wet.
Fuse.
Fuses are safety devices that will cut off if there is a short-circuit currents. Fuses can be broken if the wires become hot because the burden is too heavy. Find the cause before replacing the fuse wire. We recommend that you replace a broken fuse with a new fuse that matches (according amperes).
Cable.
Electritiy consists of various sizes, and each have their respective functions. If want to install or connect, buy according to their utility.
Electric iron.
If the electric iron would be left out, even if only for a few minutes, turn off electrical currents. Or place it in a place far from the reach of your children. When the cable is old, it should be replaced with a new and appropriate.
TV.
Although already turned off, in general, television is still storing the electric current. Therefore, avoid touching the back of the television. If want to be left out or sleep, other than shut down, also unplug the electric current from the socket.
