How to keep safe when use sockets

To stay safe when using sockets (electrical outlets), follow these key safety tips:

1. Avoid Overloading

Don’t plug too many high-power devices into one socket or extension lead. Use power strips with overload protection.

2. Use Quality Products

Choose sockets and plugs that meet certified safety standards. Avoid cheap, uncertified options.

3. Keep Dry

Never touch sockets with wet hands or use them near water unless they are waterproof (IP rated for bathrooms or outdoor use).

4. Inspect Regularly

Check for burn marks, buzzing sounds, loose fittings, or overheating. Replace damaged outlets immediately.

5. Child Safety

Use socket covers or tamper-resistant outlets if there are children in the house.

6. Switch Off When Not in Use

Turn off and unplug devices when not in use to prevent overheating or electrical faults.

7. No DIY if Untrained

If a socket needs repair or replacement, call a qualified electrician. Don't attempt to fix it yourself unless you are trained.
