Fuses greater than 15 amperes must not be used in ordinary lighting and receptacle circuits, as the conductors in these circuits can safely carry on- ly 15 amperes. Never replace blown fuses ,with pennies, washers, tin foil or oversize fuses. If 15 ampere fuses will not 'allow' you to operate the lights and appli- ances which are now ,connected in a circuit, then this circuit is overloaded. FLRXIBLE CORDS • Flexible cords must not be used for permanent wiring, that is, to make permanent extensions to circuits, These cords are-not large enough to safely Carry as much current as the permanent Wiring without becoming dangerously overheated. Flexible cords create electrical fire hazards when they are: ' (a) bare or -badly deteriorated; (b) run under rugs; (c) nailed tobaseboards, door or win doWiranes, Walls and ceilings;' (d) run throtigh partitions, walls and floors; (e) permanently connected to perman- ent wiring by•splices or joints; (f) operating appliances - which have, heating eletnents such as ket- tles, toasters, irons, rangettes and heaters; (g) used to provide Multiple branches and outlets from one, socket or outlet. FIXTURES ,and APPLIANCES All fixtures and appliances must be approved by the Canadian Standards • Asso'iation. Check for: (a) home-made and ,unapproved fix- tures and appliances; (b) loose or improperly made joints and connections - these may cause overheating; (c) deteriorated wiring in fixtures- .usually caused by heat;' (d) wattage of,-lamps (light bulbs) too high for fixtures, causes excessive heating; (e) deteriorated fixtures, denoted by , rust, bare wires, broken sockets; (f) drop cords used to operate irons, toasters and heaters, or other ap- pliances. If you receive an electrical shock from any appliance, have it "checked immediately. - PERMANENT WIRING . Check for: (a) bare or improperly made and tap- -• ed joints and connections; loose electrical connections may produce excessive heat; (b) sparking switches; ,,(c) receptacles (wall plugs) that heat up when in use; (d) objects hung on open wiring; (e) cables 'connecting water heaters, oil- burners, •sump pumps, dryers 'and other electrical equipment, in- securely fastened, giving a poor ground; (f) switches, receptacles and light out- lets in the kitchen,-basement, •bath-, 'room, utility rooms and garage not grounded; (g) interference on radio or televi- sion receivers; this may be-caused by 'poor electrical connections in your wiring system. If you 'recognize any of these hazards in your home, ACT NOW. Call your Public Utility Commission, Ontario !tura! Hydro, or a qualified electrician. SEAFORTH FIRE -AREAS 1 AND 2. JOHN.
