4 Cords, plugs and

power points

We need to make sure all cords, plugs, power points

and switches are safe to use and that electrical appliances

are plugged in safely before we switch them on.

Electrical cords should not be frayed or damaged or have wires showing.

‰Plugs should be pushed all the way into power points and should not be damaged.

Switches and power points should not be cracked, broken or loose.

Power points should not be overloaded by using too many double adaptors.
