While testing an office this week, one of our technicians uncovered a highly dangerous extension lead.
This lead had the potential to injure an unsuspecting employee or cause fire in the premises.
To the right is an image of the lead. A bottle of insect repellant had spilled on the extension lead. The chemicals in the repellant had effectively melted the insulation in the spill area. As a result that area of the lead had the consistency of a jelly fish.
This highlights the importance of all businesses to require staff to conduct regular inspections of electrical leads in order to improve safety.
Something a simple as a bottle of insect repellant could have a huge impact on your business and staff!
