Standing on exposed cords is a common way for people to get injured. These injuries can range from minor scrapes and scratches to major amputations. In this blog post, we will discuss how you can prevent foot injury by standing on exposed cords.
Bullet Point: The important thing to remember when standing on exposed cords is that you should not stand in the center of them. If your foot does touch a cable, it will be less secure and more likely to get caught between two cables as you move across them.
The number one reason people injure their feet by stepping on electrical cord is because they are unaware that there’s an electric current running through it—either from insulation wearing away or from people simply covering up the cord with carpeting or furniture. When somebody touches live wires, they can receive a serious shock and even die if enough electricity runs through their body for too long-potentially over ten seconds! Once contact has been made, these currents will continue until power is
This is one of the most common foot accidents that you can prevent. Your shoes are covered in dirt and debris which causes them to slip on wet floors, your feet slide forward because they cannot grip onto anything, this leads to a lot of scrapes and cuts from walking around with exposed cords.
The way it looks now
A person stands over an exposed cord while wearing their work shoes at home The shoe laces come into contact with the power cord, causing friction between both items but also comes into contact with moisture from the floor. This creates two points where electricity will flow through. Once something like water or juice spills near these wires- it becomes very easy for people to get electrocuted when standing directly over the What are the risks of this action? *Injuries to feet and toes from exposure to electrical currents or standing in water. *Shock can be fatal, even if it is not directly applied to your skin. Shock can also cause loss of consciousness, convulsions, heart stoppage and death. If you get a shock: *Immediately push any nearby objects away from you so that they cannot touch you. You may have reduced sensation in your hands after a shock; use them carefully! *Do not remove wet clothing unless you’re near dry ground or another safe place where there’s no risk of electricity passing through the water – don’t take off anything tight fitting as this will constrict blood flow
