    Electrical Safety Tip

    Halloween decoration and lighting safety

    Three Short Facts

    Three Quick Safety Tips
    1. Choose a battery-operated candle or glow stick for your jack-o’-lantern.
    2. Keep paper, fabric, dried plants, and other decorations away from light bulbs, heaters, and flames.

    Electrical Safety Tip

    Portable generator safety and backfeeding

    Three Short Facts
    1. Fuel-powered portable generators produce carbon monoxide, a poisonous gas you cannot see or smell.
    2. A garage or partly enclosed space can trap generator exhaust, even when doors are open.
    3. Plugging a generator into a household wall outlet can send electricity back onto utility lines and endanger repair crews.
    View All Electrical Facts
    Three Quick Safety Tips
    1. Run a portable generator outdoors, at least 20 feet from your home and other buildings, with exhaust directed away from doors, windows, and vents.
    2. Never plug a generator into a wall outlet. Have a qualified electrician install approved transfer equipment before connecting a generator to home wiring.
    3. Use battery-powered or battery-backup carbon monoxide alarms. If an alarm sounds, get everyone outside to fresh air immediately and call 911.

    Electrical Safety Tip

    Prepare for a power outage

    Three Short Facts
    1. A storm-related power outage can last longer than an everyday interruption, so advance planning matters.
    2. People who rely on electrically powered medical equipment can face serious risks when household power fails.
    3. Battery-powered lights, charged power banks, and a hand-crank or battery-powered weather radio can help during an outage.
    View All Electrical Facts
    Three Quick Safety Tips
    1. Keep flashlights or battery-powered lanterns easy to find, with spare batteries that fit them.
    2. Charge phones and power banks before an approaching storm. Keep the cables and adapters your devices need with your emergency supplies.
    3. If someone uses powered medical equipment, arrange backup power and an emergency plan with their care team before an outage. Include battery backup for smoke and carbon monoxide alarms.
