Childproof Electrical Receptacles

Have you seen the television commercial with a small child poking his finger in the electrical outlet, shocking his hair into standing up straight? Unfortunately in real life, the results of this action can be much more serious then just a bad hair day. It could cause serious injury to a person or perhaps even cause death.

Even if you don’t have children of your own, you likely have relatives that come to visit, or pets. Childproof electrical outlets can prevent foreign objects such as a finger or a pet’s tongue from entering the outlet, while allowing a standard plug to still fit. No more messing with those annoying plastic covers that you have to peel off with your fingernails. Controlled Electric can quickly install these “built-in” childproof receptacles for you. While it may seem like an unnecessary precaution, this simple installation can save you from having any incidents later, and add a layer of protection to your home and give you piece of mind.
