Cover unused outlets. Keep metal objects such as silverware away from outlets.
Don’t overload sockets. Use a power board with a safety switch and only use one per wall outlet.
When unplugging, don’t yank! Pull by the plug, not the cord.
Don’t run cords under rugs or furniture. Also keep them away from pets that like to chew.
Always clean the lint filter for your dryer. If an item says "do not put in dryer", trust the warning!
