- As you may have heard, May is National Electrical Safety Month. Here is another safety tip from Connecticut Light & Power: "Before using any electrical tool, be sure to inspect it for frayed power cords, broken plugs and cracked or broken sockets. When using an electric appliance outdoors, be sure it is plugged into an outlet that has a weatherproof cover and a ground fault circuit interrupter. If a problem occurs in the equipment, the interrupter will instantly cut the power, preventing a serious electric shock. Never use an electric appliance near a pool or other wet surfaces."
