🌊 Since pool and hot areas mean wet skin and wet surfaces, the chance of electrocution increase when electricity is present. Make sure your pool is safe and ready for summer: https://t.co/78sQXEgtXZ #PoolSafety #SafeElectricity

Watching and talking about this video together can help kids feel confident and ready - not scared - when storms are in the forecast. #KidSafety #SafeElectricity

Use smaller appliances, like slow cookers or air fryers instead of the oven on hot days. Cooking indoors can heat up your home, making your air conditioner work harder. #SaveEnergy

May 16th - 22nd is National Safe Boating Week. It's a great time to remind everyone to never go swimming near boats plugged into shore power, or docks with electrical service. Electric Shock Drowning (ESD) can occur. Make sure docks have GFCI breakers.
