What are some tips for working with power cords ?

  • Keep power cords clear of tools during use.
  • Suspend extension cords temporarily during use over aisles or work areas to eliminate stumbling or tripping hazards.
  • Replace open front plugs with dead front plugs. Dead front plugs are sealed and present less danger of shock or short circuit.
  • Do not use light duty extension cords in a non-residential situation.
  • Do not carry or lift up electrical equipment by the power cord.
  • Do not tie cords in tight knots. Knots can cause short circuits and shocks. Loop the cords or use a twist lock plug.
