With earthquakes happening frequently, besides securing furniture, ensuring electrical safety at home is crucial. In case of an unexpected power outage, many people worry about potential damage to household appliances from sudden power cuts or surges. While waiting for power to be restored, what preparations should we make to prevent appliances from getting damaged by the instant high voltage when the power returns?<\/p>\n

In addition to regular inspections of electrical circuits and wiring in residences, installing voltage stabilizers or surge protectors can stabilize voltage and prevent the dangers of surges (instantaneous high currents when power is restored after an outage). Furthermore, fitting overcurrent protection devices (circuit breakers) and ground fault circuit interrupters (GFCIs) in the main switch box can automatically cut off power in case of power overload or leakage, thus providing protection and significantly reducing the risk of wire overheating or electrical leakage.<\/p>\n

Moreover, here are some reminders for everyone:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Avoid using too many electrical appliances on the same socket simultaneously.<\/li>\n
  2. Do not use multi-plug adapters for high-power appliances.<\/li>\n
  3. When purchasing extension cords, choose ones with overload protection.<\/li>\n
  4. When going out, remember to turn off the power or unplug appliances that won’t be used for a long time.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Besides paying attention to electrical safety regularly, it’s crucial to have energy-saving awareness! Cultivate good habits of not wasting electricity in daily life for a more sustainable environment!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
