Avoid Electrical Hazards During Water Damage Cleanup
Avoid Standing in Water or on Wet Surfaces
Water damage poses significant risks, including electrical hazards. Follow these precautions to prevent electrocution while cleaning up:
- Shut off the power: Contact your electrical company or utility provider to disconnect electricity before entering flooded areas.
- Inspect the area thoroughly: Look for downed power lines, damaged electrical equipment, and wet surfaces.
- Wear proper footwear: Use rubber-soled shoes to prevent electrical shock.
- Do not touch electrical appliances: Avoid contact with electrical outlets, switches, or cords that may have come into contact with water.
- Use a flashlight: Instead of a candle or open flame, use a flashlight with new or charged batteries to avoid sparks.
Remember, electrical hazards can be life-threatening. By taking these precautions, you can help prevent accidents and avoid the dangers associated with water damage cleanup.
