Basic electrical safety rules at home

Electrical safety starts with common sense

Electricity is essential in any modern home, but it can be dangerous if handled carelessly. Leafy Energy only provides general safety guidance and does not offer step-by-step DIY instructions for fixed installations.

Key rules

• Never touch exposed wires, open terminals or bare metal parts.
• Do not modify your fuse box or fixed wiring yourself; always use a qualified electrician.
• Use cables, power strips and devices with proper certification and undamaged insulation.
• Unplug devices before moving, cleaning or inspecting them.

In combination with Leafy Energy, chargers and batteries

• Have wallboxes, charge points and home batteries installed by a professional.
• Use the Leafy Energy app only to manage settings and profiles, never to bypass physical safety limits.
• If in doubt, stop and consult a qualified professional rather than random online tips.

In the demo environment we highlight these rules clearly so everyone understands Leafy Energy is a digital assistant, not a replacement for an electrician.
