On the Sixth Day of Christmas…keep lights bright.

Only use lights that have been certified by a recognized organization such as CSA, ULC or C-UL. Make sure you use indoor lights inside your home and outdoor lights outside.

Check the light strings and extension cords, throwing out any that are frayed or have exposed wires, loose connections or broken sockets.

Never run electrical cords through doorways or under carpets.  Keep electrical cords away from children and pets. Turn off all holiday lights before you go to bed or leave your home.
