The Electrical Safety Foundation International, an organization committed to spreading electrical safety awareness, has loads of tips to help keep you safe. From precautionary measures to take during natural disasters to raising your children with a healthy appreciation for the merits and hazards of electrical power, ESFI’s goal is to use education as a means of minimizing the number of electrical fatalities across the globe.

Secondly, start celebrating National Electrical Safety Month by thanking a lineman or electrician. They do some pretty amazing work—particularly when things go very very wrong.
