The improvement of modern living standards leads to more and more places to use electricity. Children live at home or in kindergartens, and there are more and more sockets and plugs, which also increases the chance of children getting an electric shock. Therefore, children should have the awareness of safe use of electricity from an early age, learn to use electricity safely, and avoid and reduce the safety accidents of children getting an electric shock.
The following is the common sense of electricity consumption summarized by kindergarten teachers from a large number of materials.
Let children know that electric current passing through the human body will cause casualties. All metal products are conductive. Never use metal tools to directly contact the power supply. For example, it is very dangerous to touch and explore the inside of the power socket with hands or metal conductive objects such as wire, nails, pins and scissors.
Teach children to read the signs of safe use of electricity. Different colors of safety signs represent different meanings. Generally speaking, red is used to mark the information of prohibition and stop. You shouldn't touch the red sign when you meet it. Yellow: used to mark danger. Such as "beware of electric shock" and "pay attention to safety".
Know the main power switch. Learn to turn off the main power supply in an emergency. Unplug the electrical appliance after use. Don't pull the wire hard when plugging and unplugging the power plug, in case the insulation of the wire is damaged, causing electric shock.
If someone gets an electric shock, try to cut off the power supply in time.
Don't save people directly by hand, call for help from adults, and don't handle it yourself to prevent electric shock. Wood, rubber and plastic do not conduct electricity and are called insulators. These tools can directly contact the power supply and will not cause electric shock. You can use dry wooden sticks and other things to separate the electrocuted person from the live electrical appliances. These operations are best left to adults.
Do not remove or install the power cord, plug and socket at will. Even if it is as simple as installing a light bulb, it should be turned off first and carried out under the guidance of parents.
Don't hide when you see a fallen wire. Do not touch the bare thread with your hands. Next to the switch box, there are many dangers. Don't play near the switch, and don't move the switch at will to avoid short circuit and leakage.
Usually water is also conductive. Electrical appliances should be careful not to get wet, do not touch them with wet hands, and do not wipe them with wet cloth. For example, wet hands can't connect the plug, which is easy to get an electric shock; Do not wipe the TV with a wet towel to prevent water from falling into the casing, causing short circuit, machine damage and personal injury.
Lightning protection in rainy days, thunder and lightning in case of rain, turn off the TV stereo and unplug the power supply. In addition, parents should try not to leave their children alone at home. At the same time, let children know more about electric shock self-help and emergency common sense, and strive to minimize the injury.
