But fire spreads very quickly, especially if there are many things made of synthetics, wood or paper. We need to act quickly, clearly and as decisively as possible. Here are a few steps to minimize the problem as soon as possible.

Immediately ensure safety Your safety and the safety of your loved ones should be in the first place. If you see that the socket is burning or there are signs of smoke, first of all turn off the power supply. Find the main switch in your electrical shield and turn it off.

What can we do to prevent this situation from happening again? First of all, we need to start with the fact that Khrushchev, which is used by a huge number of people in our region, is a very dangerous housing in terms of sudden ignition. The fact is that few people repair them at the level of changing cables and electrical wiring. Firstly, it is expensive, and secondly, sometimes it is simply impossible. Workers simply cannot drill walls in the manner of Swiss cheese, so as not to damage the entire structure.



But the past is forgotten, and the future, with its powerful washing machines, home computers, televisions, audio equipment and everything else, is quite voracious in terms of electricity. So the old wiring might just not be able to handle it all. Except for the fact that everything has its own time. They're slowly breaking down.

But if you still decide to deal with this issue, we offer you a few small tips that will greatly save you time and effort. And with them you will feel more confident in terms of the same security.

1. Buy only quality cables. Savings can work on other goods. She's just out of place here.
2. Always install an automatic system to protect against overvoltage. It will be your shield in many situations: a sudden blackout and turn on the lights, stunned neighbors who suddenly decided to hammer all their outlets at once, even lightning hitting the house. A good protection system saves from all this.
3. Third, but no less important. The calculation of the cable cross section should be well calibrated. With power and current. Some online stores offer their customers special calculators that can be used for these calculations. But if you do not understand anything about this, contact the master. (Uncle Fedya from the next entrance is almost never such a master)
4. From time to time, monitor the electrical wiring already installed. And pay attention to new, purchased household appliances. Try to correctly calculate your needs and ergonomics. Even the coolest wiring can not cope, if it connect some space power. That, too, must be taken into account. They will pay less for the light.
