One of the most common causes of household electrical fires is overloaded outlets. Avoid plugging too many high-power devices into one socket. Instead, use surge protectors or dedicated circuits for heavy appliances like refrigerators, air conditioners, and heaters.
Frayed or damaged cords are silent fire hazards. Check your cords regularly for signs of wear, cuts, or exposed wiring. Replace damaged cables immediately and never run cords under rugs or furniture it traps heat and can lead to melting or short circuits.Water and electricity are a dangerous mix. Always keep appliances, sockets, and switches dry. In bathrooms, kitchens, or outdoor areas, ensure proper waterproofing and GFCI (Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter) protection.
Even modern homes require periodic electrical checks. Over time, wires degrade, and systems may fall behind current standards. Annual inspections help detect issues before they escalate protecting your family and property.
