Socket
overload can
cause house fires
We’ve all done it, needed an extra socket
so
we have plugged in an extension lead, then another, then another
until we look and wonder how dangerous is it? The answer is very
dangerous, do not overload
your sockets... there is a genuine fire hazard.
Many properties, are short of plug sockets or have sockets and
switches positioned poorly for the modern use of rooms.
It makes sense to convert single sockets to
double. This is a simple swap-in job. Yo
can also add sockets into a circuit but it’s important to
avoid overloading a circuit as
this may involve additional circuits in the
distribution board. |
