Stop the fire before it starts. The majority of electrical fires stem from faulty electrical wiring or poor maintenance of electrical systems. To stop an electrical fire before it starts, do not overload electrical outlets and ensure that all electrical work is performed to code by a licensed electrician.
o Also keep electrical systems clear of dust, trash, and spider webs, which can all lead to fires.
o You should also use circuit breakers and fuses as often as possible, which are easy steps to take in order to stop a power surge from starting a fire.
