Welcome to National Electrical Safety Month!
May is National Electrical Safety Month. Each year we launch a public safety campaign to help spread the word and educate the community about how they can both resolve existing electrical issues and keep them from arising in their home and business.
The 2021 National Electrical Safety Month theme is “Connected to Safety” and focuses on making your home safe and efficient.
In 2020, we did an entirely virtual campaign where we posted a video each weekday in the month of May. All of those videos can be found below!
