Electrocution can occur due to faulty sockets, unsecured plugs, damaged insulation, loose wiring, unplugged appliances, etc., carelessness and lack of information. These are important risk factors leading to the danger of burns by electrocution or death in children.
We prevent so that we don't end up having to treat and suffer the consequences!
Prevention measures:
- We install plugs with baby protection, the new ones have this protection included, according to the legislation in force
- We do not leave damaged cables, we do not use extension cords in the nursery.
- Don't forget the phone charger in the socket next to the child, the child can put it in his mouth or strangle himself with it.
- We use low-intensity nightlights, but we do not place them near a radiator or other heat source, we do not cover them with clothes, curtains, beds etc., Although the lamps are very pretty with flowers, garlands, butterflies or cars, they are NOT TOYS.
- We don't use classic wired lamps in the baby's room, children reach them, although the socket is provided, they can walk around the bulb/plug and reach dangerous areas where they can suffer burns by electrocution.
- We hide all the cables in special tubes and never let children have access to them, we don't leave them lying around the room.
- Electrical appliances will not be within children's reach (e.g. milk/water warmers or anything else)
- The electric baby rocking chair will be checked periodically for damaged cables, we check the plugs. Do not leave the baby unattended for a moment. If we leave the baby's room, he will still be monitored audio and video
- In the bathroom we keep an eye out for plugs, hairdryers or any other appliances plugged in.
- We leave nothing damaged and uninsured
- Electric toys are accompanied by clear and visible warnings, always read them carefully and follow the recommendations
- When the child grows and understands, we teach him about the risks and consequences of electrocution. We train them for their age, so that they know to be on their guard.
