A local fire department has been showing a "Fire Safety for the Holidays" short *commercial* on TV.
They cover the usual fire issues with LIVE Christmas trees, and safe cooking procedures, such as not leaving an oven or other cooking unattended and so on.
But they said that when leaving you home, all ELECTRONICS should be shut off. This includes the TV, computer, radio, stereo, and so on.... (You should do that anyhow to save power.).
But these days electronics are found in almost everything. For example,
LED or CF lightbulbs GFCI outlets Arc Fault breakers Light Dimmer switches Modern furnaces. kitchen ranges, home security systems, microwave ovens, and even refrigerators.
Even your cellphone, (but most people take that with them)...
Anyhow, if I was to follow their statements exactly, I would have to shut off the power to my home entirely everytime I go away.....
