Safety
Flipping a light switch. Plugging
in a coffeemaker. Charging a laptop
computer. These are second nature for
most of us. Electricity makes our lives
easier. However, we need to be cautious
and keep safety in mind.
IMPORTANT REMINDER
Call a qualified electrician or your
landlord if you have:
U Frequent problems with blowing
fuses or tripping circuit breakers
U A tingling feeling when you touch
an electrical appliance
U Discolored or warm wall outlets
U A burning or rubbery smell coming
from an appliance
U Flickering or dimming lights
U Sparks from an outlet
