As parents, keeping your children safe is always a top priority. One often-overlooked hazard in the home is electrical outlets. Curious little hands can easily insert objects like keys or paperclips, leading to dangerous shocks or injuries. That’s why tamper-resistant (TR) outlets are a must-have for any home with young children.
What Are Tamper-Resistant Outlets?
Tamper-resistant outlets, like those from Eaton, are designed with built-in safety shutters that prevent anything except a proper plug from being inserted. These shutters only open when equal pressure is applied to both slots, making it nearly impossible for kids to stick in foreign objects.
Why Upgrade to TR Outlets?
- Enhanced Safety - Protects children from accidental shocks.
- Code Compliance - The National Electrical Code (NEC) now requires TR outlets in all new and renovated homes.
- Affordable & Effective - A simple upgrade that significantly improves home safety.
At Bee Electrical Contracting Inc., we make upgrading your outlets quick and hassle-free. If your home still has traditional outlets, it’s time to switch to tamper-resistant models for better peace of mind.
