With autumn only weeks
away, many people
are gearing up for leaf
removal, holiday decorating and
other outdoor activities around the
house. As customers make the most
of the season, PSEG Long Island
reminds everyone to keep safety at
the forefront when using electricity.
“Many of us will be utilizing
electricity to clear fallen leaves,
put up our holiday decorations and
otherwise prepare our homes for
the colder months,” said Michael
Sullivan, PSEG Long Island’s vice
president of Electric Operations.
“Whether you are using electric
lawn equipment, wiring up electric
holiday displays or installing
weatherproofing, it’s important
to follow best practices to ensure
everyone stays safe.”
PSEG Long Island
recommends customers:
• Check that extension cords are
correctly rated for the amount of
electricity they are to carry and
are Underwriter Laboratory (UL)
approved.
• Check all electric cords for visible
damage. Cracked or frayed cords
can be dangerous.
• Never use power equipment on

wet hedges, grass, shrubs, or in any
areas that are damp.
• Make sure their work and garden
power tools are protected with
three-pronged grounding plugs,
unless they are double insulated.
• Ensure that all outdoor outlets
have waterproof covers. Outlets that
have moisture in them may create a
shock hazard.
• Keep all ladders far away from
electric lines.
