Every year over 3,000 home fires are caused by extension cords. That means if not used properly, they can overheat and light up a home.
Only use tested and certified extension cords.
Inspect your cords for damage.
Don’t ever plug an extension cord into another.
Make sure you’re using the right type of extension cord. Outdoor cords for outdoors.
Never cut off the ground pin.
Always plug into a GFCI protected outlet when using outdoors.
Never run extension cords under rugs, carpets, or through doors or windows.
And bottom line, extension cords are for temporary use only. Be smart and stay safe.
