Never stick
anything into an electrical socket. It is a great chance you will
get shocked
or even electrocuted.
Also, never ever guess or see if a power line has electricity flowing through
it. Even if the power is turned off there still can be electricity flowing
through your home.
Try to keep
from using extension cords because they fray a lot of times when they are
plugged in and out of sockets and stored in places. If you find an electrical
cord that is frayed or damaged in any way you should never use it.
Up at higher
altitude there is a greater chance to get severely shocked,
or electrocuted.
Never fly model planes, kites, or balloons in these storms or around overhead
power lines. If something you need to get is up in a tree it is best to
have an adult watch you, look around to see if there are any power lines
near the tree, or any loose limbs that can touch an electrical wire.
In my opinion
I think this is the most dangerous safety hazard of all. Always keep away
from transformers or put anything inside the gates of them! If you find
one of the locks is unlocked immediately tell your parents to call the
power company to fix it. If a power line is down you should do the same
thing.
