With the development of science and technology and the improvement of people's living standards, electricity has become an indispensable part of our lives. However, if you don't pay attention to the safety of electricity, accidents can easily occur. Therefore, it is very necessary to understand the knowledge points of electricity safety. Below, we will introduce the knowledge points of electricity safety from several aspects.
1. Safety of wires and electrical products.
First of all, we should pay attention to the safety of wires and electrical products. Wires should be of acceptable quality, not broken or aged wires. At the same time, do not overload the wires to avoid fire accidents. In addition, electrical products should choose brands that meet national standards, and do not use counterfeit and shoddy products. When using electrical products, pay attention to the use in accordance with the instructions, and do not disassemble or modify the electrical products at will.
2. Protective grounding and protective zeroing.
In order to prevent the occurrence of electric shock accidents, we should take measures to protect the grounding and protect the zero. Protective grounding is to connect the metal shell of electrical equipment with the ground, so that even if a leakage accident occurs, the current will flow into the ground through the grounding wire and will not cause harm to the human body. The protective zero connection is to connect the metal shell of the electrical equipment with the neutral wire, if a leakage accident occurs, the current will return to the power supply through the neutral wire, which will not cause harm to the human body. When using electrical products, we should check whether the protective grounding and protective zero connection of electrical products are in good condition, and if there is a problem, it should be repaired or replaced in time.
3. Correct use of sockets and plugsSockets and plugs are commonly used electrical accessories in our daily life, and if they are not used correctly, electric shock accidents can easily occur. We should choose sockets and plugs that meet national standards, and do not use counterfeit and shoddy products. When using sockets and plugs, make sure that your hands are dry to avoid electric shock accidents. At the same time, do not use broken or aging sockets and plugs, and replace them in time if they find a problem. Guangzhou Power Supply Bureau reminds you to use electricity safely.
