               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
                       your body.
                     In case of fire caused by electricity sparks, make sure that you switch off the
                       mains 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.
