You can help prevent electric shock, burns and buy fire-starting their efforts years electrical safety awareness. This is the word that was set by the Electrical Safety Foundation International (ESFI).
“Despite the fact that technology is reduced to improve product safety standards and electrical code electrical hazards” said President ESFI Brett Brenner.
To raise awareness of electrical safety and protection of persons in the home and workplace, has a safety kit ESFI for power tools that includes statistics on electrical hazards and recommendations designed to prevent electric shock burns and fires.
An average of 400 people are electrocuted each year and thousands more are injured in an electrical hazard. Curbing the leading shock every year, more aware of the power lines at home and at work. Contact with power line construction equipment and items such as ladders and garden tools are among the leading causes of electric shock.
The increased use of RCD (FI), both at home and at work to protect against lethal electrical currents can further reduce the number of electric shocks.
It is estimated that current fires caused 140 000 every year killed hundreds and injured thousands more and caused 1.6 billion U.S. dollars damage. Aging systems, combined with this growing demand for energy to electrical fires. Overloaded,flickering lights and power outlets and light switches colored faceplates to the need of electrical upgrades. Addressing,reduce injuries and reduce economic losses caused by electrical fires.
