Electrical Safety is you workplace safe?

Electricity can be dangerous. While Victoria has the
 
best electrical safety record of all the Australian states,

we cannot afford to be complacent. New initiatives are

required to ensure electricity related accidents

are minimised – and even eliminated.

The electrical Home Safety Inspection Scheme is

about protecting individuals and families from possible

electrocution or serious injury.

The scheme ensures that the community in general

and individual households and properties are protected

from electricity related accidents.

It is an important initiative which will bring peace

of mind to families.

You must ask yourself: Can I afford not to have

an electrical Home Safety Inspection?

Buying or selling a house?

Arranging an electrical Home Safety Inspection

when buying or selling a house is also a good idea.

Whether you are purchasing or selling, an electrical

Home Safety Inspection of the property’s electrical

installation, receiving a certificate and, if necessary,

arranging to fix any defects will provide a level of

assurance for both parties.

So if you are selling, arrange an inspection. If you are

buying, insist on an electrical Home Safety Inspection

before proceeding.

Electrical Safety Safety Swtiches save lives
 
 
It is easy to forget that our everyday appliances can

cause us harm. Faulty wiring, faulty appliances or

accidents with electricity can be fatal.

When you get an electric shock, electricity usually

flows through your body to earth. It can flow through

your heart, interfering with the electric impulses which

keep it beating, causing the heart to stop.

But how can you monitor an electrical current you

cannot see, or watch every member of your family

with every appliance in the house?

 

A safety switch monitors the flow of electricity through

a circuit. It detects a problem as soon as the current

leaves the circuit, and turns the power off within 0.03

of a second.

That’s quick enough to help save your life, and help

prevent costly fires or damage to your property.
