Lighting Options
If you're looking for some
extra light in your kitchen or a dark closet but you're
not into wiring, I have some items that may be just what
you need... |
Check the wattage
on your lamps and fixtures; using a higher wattage than is
recommended is a fire hazard! 
If you have a mix
of three prong and two prong outlets in your home, store
three prong grounding adaptors in the rooms with the two
prong outlets. This will eliminate the need to search for
any adaptors when you're in the middle of a project. 
If you need to
use an extension cord make sure that it is at least as
thick if not thicker than the cord you're plugging into
it, using a skinnier cord could cause a circuit overload
and that's a fire hazard. 
When extension
cords are not in use, loop a key ring through the prong
end so that a curious child can't plug it into an outlet.
Other ways to stay
kid conscious around electrical items, always, always use
child safety covers on unused outlets, look for extension
cords and power strips with protective slides to keep
curious kids safe! 
Keep a rubber mat
under your electrical panel so that you're grounded any
time your near the panel, any dampness on the floor could
act as a conductor!
