Electricity, like many things, is both good and bad. It’s good because we use it to power everything we do in our lives. We depend on it to light up our work, play, and everything in between. We rely upon it to drive our modern world, keeping it moving forward as we go about our daily activities. And we particularly rely upon it in the summer months, when we’re using our air conditioners, working in our yards, and swimming in our pools. But we all know that electricity can also be a bad thing—but only when our use—direct or indirect—of it occurs in an unsafe manner. Electricity is extremely dangerous, even deadly, to those who do not respect its immense power. Though most of us likely will never be harmed by it, it only takes a split second of carelessness or distraction to be forever negatively impacted by electricity. Following are practical tips about how to stay safe in summer, brought to you from a top electrician near you.
