A danger to children and pets
Not only do loose charging cables create clutter, they can also pose a danger to small children and pets. A charger plugged in with the cable exposed attracts attention: A curious child or pet chewing on a cable risks electric shock or could cause a short circuit.
In addition, a child could accidentally pull the cable and force the plug out of the wall, damaging the electrical installation or causing a dangerous spark.
How can this risk be limited?
- Always keep chargers out of reach of small children and pets.
- Do not let charging cables hang down to prevent them from being pulled out or chewed.
- Choose outlet protectors to reduce the risk of electric shock.
Adopt best practices for a safer daily life
- Changing a simple habit can have a significant impact on your safety and energy consumption. Always unplugging your charger after use is a simple yet effective measure.
