Simple Summer safety tips A few simple electrical safety rules can prevent injuries: • Make sure patio string lights (like holiday lights) are approved for extended outdoor use • Ladders – even those made of wood – that come into contact with a power line can be fatal. Stay at least 10 feet away from overhead power lines • Unplug outdoor tools and appliances when not in use • Inspect power tools and appliances for frayed cords, broken plugs and cracked or broken housing • Water and electricity do not mix. Avoid damp conditions – including wet grass – when using electricity • Practice pool and spa safety. Underwater lighting and pool equipment are just a few examples of how electricity can come in contact with pool water.
