               Safety Precautions:


               Electricity can be very dangerous and fatal. While handling electrical gadgets, we
               should take the following precautions.

                      Never touch any electrical device with wet hands.


                      While using electrical device, always wear rubber-soled footwear as rubber is
                       a bad conductor of electricity and prevents a large current from passing
                       through our body.


                      In case of fire caused by electrical sparks, make sure that you switch off the
                       mains (main power supply) instead of trying to douse it with water. Always
                       use fire extinguisher and sand to douse electrical fires.


                      Never play or try to conduct experiments with electrical connections, wires
                       switches or sockets at home.
