When there is a power failure, utilize battery-powered lamps rather than candles to minimize fire hazard. Never leave an open flame. Pull out the plugs of appliances to avoid electrical shocks when power is restored. Have fire extinguishers handy and test smoke alarms that have backup batteries. Run generators outdoors and away from windows to prevent carbon monoxide accumulation. Have emergency exit plans in place and have flashlights placed in accessible areas. Remain vigilant for fire risks when the lights go out.
