Don’t let electrical hazards haunt Halloween!


T


he decorative lights, fog machines, black lights, and animatronics of Hal- loween make for adventurous, entertaining times for children and adults. With these decora- tions, though, the risk of fire or electrocution could be lurking around the corner. Use the fol- lowing tips to keep electrical hazards from haunting you this Halloween: • Inspect electrical decora-


tions. Look for cracked or frayed sockets, loose or bare wires, and loose connections. • Read manufacturer’s instructions regarding installa- tion and maintenance. Check the instructions to see how many light strings can be connected together. • Fasten outdoor lights securely to trees, walls or other firm supports. Do not use nails or tacks that could puncture light strings or electrical/ex- tension cords. • Provide well-lit walkways and porch lighting for trick-or-treaters. Make sure the walkways are clear for trick-or-treaters. (996833001) • Don’t overload extension cords or place them near, or in, snow or water. • Do not overload your circuit breakers or fuses. • Plug lights and decorations into circuits protected by ground fault

circuit interrupters (GFCIs). Portable outdoor GFCIs can be purchased where electrical supplies are sold. • Make sure decorative lighting is well-ventilated, protected from weath- er and a safe distance from anything flammable like dry leaves and shrubs. Do not coil power cords or extension cords while in use or tuck under rugs or drapes. • Turn out all lights and decorations before leaving or going to bed. Always have at least one fire extinguisher available and know how to use it. Sources: Home Safety Council
