Curious children should be kept safe from electricity.

Children are wonderful because they see the little curiosities that make up our world. They’ll squat on the sidewalk and watch a bug crawl into a crack. Children will pause in the middle of play to cock their heads and listen for a plane to travel over head. They’re entertained by leaf crowns.

You, the adult, didn’t notice the bug. You weren’t aware of the plane.  You seldom wear leaves in your hair, and you aren’t aware of the appeal electrical outlets have to curious children.

Nearly 3,000 children will be injured sometime this year by placing metal objects into electrical outlets.

The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) states that most of these injuries will involve burns ranging in severity, but some will be fatal. To reduce this risk, call Amp Electric. They can install child proof outlets in your home or office.
