Electrical Safety Tips in the kitchen

Kitchen is where families share warm meals and entertaining conversations, but also sometimes when fires start.

Here you will find some electrical tips to identify possible hazards in your kitchen and correct them:
Use ground-fault circuit interrupters (GFCIs) – fast-acting circuit breaker outlets that sense small changes in current and protect you from electrocution.
Unplug appliances such as coffee pots and toasters when not in use.
Keep electrical cords in good condition, with no exposed wires or cracked insulation.
Only plug one heat source, such as a griddle or waffle iron, into each wall outlet.
Do not overextend one electrical circuit by using multiple high-wattage appliances such as a microwave and a griddle.
