Daily Electrical Safety & Facts
Verified insights and safety tips compiled from trusted industry authorities like the NEC, UL, and Mike Holt.
Electrical safety after flooding
Three Short Facts
- Submerged electrical equipment may still be energized, even when it appears inactive.
- Floodwater can leave hidden corrosion and damage that create later shock or fire hazards.
- Electrical equipment exposed to water needs professional inspection before it can return to use.
Three Quick Safety Tips
- Stay out of flooded areas until the electric utility has confirmed that power is off. Do not enter water to reach a breaker panel.
- Do not touch submerged electrical equipment or try switching it on to see whether it works.
- Arrange a qualified electrician’s inspection before restoring water-exposed equipment to service. Let the professional determine what needs replacement.
Stay clear of downed power lines
Three Short Facts
- A fallen power line may still carry electricity. Treat every downed line as live.
- Electricity from a downed line can spread through nearby ground, putting people at risk without direct contact.
- Wet ground can extend the danger beyond 35 feet from a fallen line.
Three Quick Safety Tips
- Stay at least 35 feet from fallen lines, farther in wet conditions. Keep others away and call 911.
- Do not drive over a fallen line or through water touching one. Choose another route.
- Leave fallen wires where they are. A stick or other tool does not make moving them safe.
Arc-fault protection and monthly testing
Three Short Facts
- Arc-fault circuit interrupters (AFCIs) help protect against electrical fires caused by dangerous arcing.
- AFCI protection and GFCI protection serve different purposes: AFCIs address arcing-related fire hazards, while GFCIs help protect people from severe electrical shock.
- AFCIs need testing after installation and every month to confirm that they trip as intended.
Three Quick Safety Tips
- Test your AFCIs monthly using their TEST button and the manufacturer’s instructions. Plan for the brief loss of power to connected devices.
- If an AFCI does not trip during its test, contact a licensed electrician to have it replaced.
- Ask a licensed electrician about your home’s AFCI protection. Have a qualified professional handle AFCI installation or replacement.
