A message from Keith McKenzie, Commissioner for Electrical Safety

Electricity is an essential part of our everyday environment—running through our walls, roof spaces, under desks, across benchtops, in our kitchens, and throughout our workplaces. Almost everything we do relies on it in some way.

But how confident are you in your own electrical safety knowledge? And just as importantly, are your friends, family and colleagues equally well informed?

In this article I call upon you to undertake a couple of actions.

  1. Consider sending your mates this link to register themselves. Remember - Sharing is Caring. eSAFE Electrical
  2. If you believe in electrical safety, which no doubt you do, as you have subscribed to eSAFE Electrical, please spend a couple of minutes now and learn a little bit more how you can keep you and your family safe. (Do it now, as you probably won’t get back to it later)

Please click on at least one link below, or if you have time, consider all of them. Just a couple of minutes will allow you to be well informed about electrical safety.
