As technology continues to develop, electricity has become an integral part of our lives. In addition, the associated electricity security issues are also of great concern. In order to make electricity safer and easier for people, some information on electricity safety is shared below。
I. Household electricity security:
Household electricity security is mainly concerned with electrical appliances, outlets and wires. When purchasing electrical appliances, it is necessary to select a regular, qualified product, to use the electrical appliances correctly in accordance with the instructions and not to remove them at will。
It is not appropriate to insert too many plugs in the home to avoid overloading and fires, and when using the plugs, to ensure that the plugs are firmly inserted and to avoid looseness leading to poor contact with the plugs, thereby causing sparks and burning plugs to cause safety risks. High power equipment, such as air conditioning and heating units, should preferably use special high power outlets to avoid overloading and hazards。
In addition, there is a need to regularly check home cable cables to detect ageing or deterioration and to replace them in a timely manner. Avoid cross-twiring of wires so that they do not form wires and increase the risk of fire。
Earnings: when using electrical appliances, do not touch the guidance line at will and do not touch electrical appliances with wet hands. When turning off electrical appliances, it would be preferable to remove the plugs and reduce potential risks. Family members travel to remember to cut off the power supply in their homes, not only to save electricity, but also to ensure safety。
Ii. Outdoor electricity security:
In the use of electrical appliances outside the home, attention should be paid to flood-proofing, preferably with good quality. Ensure that they meet the relevant safety standards and use extended lines and plugs that meet the requirements to prevent risks arising from the ageing of cables or short circuits。
In case of severe weather conditions, electrical appliances should also be switched off in time to avoid safety incidents. Outside, cables must be routed in an orderly manner to avoid cross-entanglement causing short circuits or electricity leaks。
Iii. Equipment security for children
For families with children, protective appliances, such as child safety outlets, are selected. Avoiding the use of easy-to-reach appliances and preventing accidents。
In addition, as far as possible, outlets and electrical appliances are placed in places that children cannot reach or reach. Education of children on the basics of electricity use, the hazards of moving appliances, including the non-attribution of outlets, appliances, the non-self-plugging of plugs, and the timely reporting of abnormalities to adults to prevent children from using electricity, but also to enable children to understand it。
The children are taught not to play near the electric switch, not to go near the offline, but to stay away from the offline, not to come near them, let alone to touch them with their hands. Let the kids know that water is also electrical. Electrical supplies should be careful not to be watered, to touch appliances with wet hands and to wipe them without wet cloth。
Iv. Contingencies management
When electrical failure is detected, the power supply should be cut immediately and professionals requested to perform repairs. Do not break down electrical appliances in private so as not to cause further malfunction or risk。
Once electrical appliances are electrified, smokes, burning scents or fires occur, the power supply shall be cut off before the fire is extinguished, water or foam extinguishers shall not be used, and dry powder extinguishers shall be used to extinguish the fire. At the same time, the police are promptly notified and professionals are requested to handle it。
With advances in science and technology, our electricity companies have been exploring how to use electricity more safely and efficiently. No, in recent days the guangzhou power authority has led the development of the world's first insulation of 500 kv of the core intellectual property, resulting in the technological domestication of key large-scale green equipment。
This is the first 500 kv plant oil insulating transformer to be owned by china, which is safer and more environmentally friendly than the traditional mineral oil insulation transformer. It is estimated that each 500 kv insulation oil transformer will reduce carbon emissions by about 70 tons throughout its life cycle, equivalent to 1 km of carbon emissions from 270,000 vehicles or a day of carbon absorption from 14,000 trees。
In addition, the first polypropylene-friendly cable on the southern grid and the first clean air insulation gis equipment have been in operation since 2023 in guangzhou. Building on innovative management systems, the guangzhou power authority is actively supporting the green low-carbon transformation of energy, promoting the full development of key core technologies, such as hydropower synergetic technologies, green and green materials and electric equipment, and enhancing the core competitiveness of green low-carbon industries。
Electricity plays an important and indispensable role in our lives, and electricity companies have been working to make electricity safer and more environmentally friendly. So let's all be aware of the safety of electricity, the value of life, the light of life
