Richard Bedard CONSTRUCTION 236-4679 - ZURICH I on, 57A Using electricity wisely isn't just a matter of avoiding waste. Being watchful to avoid the frittering away of kilowatthours is everyone's concern, in the inter- est of economy and conservation of valuable energy resources. But for some people, living in older homes with outdated wiring, restricted use of appliances is not always a matter of choice. They do not have sufficient circuits to serve normal needs without resorting to 'octopus' outlets and extension cords. The result: overloading and blowing of fuses. These conditions also tend to diminish the performance of appliances and shortens their life. Inadequate wiring is not only inconvenient, it can be a safety hazard. If you have any doubts about the capacity of your home's wiring have it checked by a qualified Electrical Contractor. Then, use electricity wisely .. and safely.
