Child-safe home: sockets, cables and smart devices

Electricity and young children: extra care required

With young children at home you look differently at sockets, cables and devices. Leafy Energy can help limit usage times, but physical safety always comes first.

Sockets and cables

• Use child-safe outlet covers or sockets with built-in child protection.
• Avoid loose extension cords across the floor.
• Make sure children cannot play with EV charging cables or battery connections.

Smart devices

• Avoid connecting dangerous devices (such as power tools) to smart plugs that children might accidentally turn on.
• Protect phones and tablets that control Leafy Energy with PINs or child profiles.

Leafy Energy as a helper

• You can configure notifications if certain devices switch on unexpectedly.
• Demo scenarios show how parents can gain insight into usage patterns and times.
