| Notice the danger signs | On all electrical equipment you use, watch for signs of wear on the cable and insulation problems where it connects to the plug or equipment. Replace or rectify as necessary. |
| Plugs and Fuses | If you put a mains plug on a piece of equipment, follow the wiring colour code:
BROWN – LIVE BLUE – NEUTRAL GREEN-YELLOW EARTH Use the correct fuse for the equipment. |
| Water and electricity | Wet electrical equipment is very dangerous. Disconnect from the mains before touching it. Beware of wet heating mantles. |
| Safety Testing | All portable electrical equipment (i.e. equipment that can be unplugged) must be tested regularly. New, second-hand and old equipment must be tested before being brought into use. Equipment that carries a “Failed” sticker must never be used. |
Do not use electrical devices without proper insulation
Multiple adapters should not be use to avoid overloading of power points
