What will be an ideal response?


1. Do not stand in water when using electric tools.
2. Be sure that a tool is turned off before plugging it in so that a spark does not jump from the outlet to the plug.
3. Electrical wall outlets should be properly grounded.
4. Three-wire electrical tools are the best choice for commercial work. The extra terminal is for ground. If you use a homeowner-type tool with a two-wire plug, it should be double-insulated.
5. Be sure to observe electrical wire color coding when repairing or replacing power cords on electric tools.
