Most of the times,cause of fire and devastation is electrical short circuits. The deaths due to electrocution are on the rise.Such unfortunate happenings can be prevented. We get electricity through over head or underground cable. The armor or steel flat strips wrapped inside insulation are to be connected to earthing system of our homes at meter board. Unfortunately this is not done.
Even in our homes, we do not bother whether switches are connected on phase or on neutral . Switches must be connected to phase. Miniature circuit breakers must be installed on each circuit. I will be writing on this safety aspect.
Hope that we prevent loss of life or property by simple precautions.
