  • Damaged electrical enclosures such as switches receptacles and junction boxes should not be in use. If found, Contact Apple Electric for assistance.
  • Extension cords should be used only when absolutely necessary and only temporarily and not in place of permanent wiring.
  • Do not use any appliance or extension cord that shows signs of wear, such as frayed insulation or exposed wiring.
  • Never unplug an appliance by pulling on the cord, always remove by the plug.
