Safety advice for homeowners in Leeds

Although it still seems very early to start talking about Christmas, we know that many of our customers start thinking about outdoor Christmas lighting in plenty of time before the festivities begin!

With this in mind we thought we’d take the opportunity to highlight the importance of installing Christmas lights safely. Outdoor Christmas lights are more popular than ever before and stunning displays, covering entire houses are no longer such an unusual sight. There’s no denying that outdoor Christmas lights can look absolutely fantastic but installing and using them can prove to be very dangerous indeed unless you follow safety guidelines.

As qualified electricians in Leeds, here at Dalec we believe that if you have even the slightest doubt about your ability to install outdoor lights safely, the best option is to call in the experts. Installing outdoors lights is dangerous: whether in terms of working high up on a ladder or your electrical expertise.

One of the most important things to remember is that you must only use lights which have been specially designed for outdoor use. Check the packaging carefully and if in doubt don’t use them – buy new outdoor-specific lights instead.
