🚨 Preparedness Tip Thursday 🚨
Generators are a great source of back up power, but make sure you know how to use them safely!
Always connect your generator to appliances with heavy-duty extension cords. Hooking up your generator directly into your home power supply could cause a surge to outside powerlines.
For more info visit ReadyNC.gov
🚨 Consejo de preparación del jueves 🚨
Los generadores son una gran fuente de energía de respaldo, ¡pero asegúrese de saber cómo usarlos de forma segura!
Conecte siempre su generador a electrodomésticos con cables de extensión resistentes. Conectar su generador directamente al suministro eléctrico de su hogar podría provocar una sobretensión en las líneas eléctricas externas.
