  • Childproofing outlets is an essential measure every parent should take, with the guidance of licensed electricians like those at Mr. Electric of Waco. Serving Waco, TX, we prioritize safeguarding your little ones from burns and shocks by installing child-safe electrical outlets. Resembling standard outlets, child-safe outlets feature spring-loaded cover plates that prevent children from accessing electricity by applying uneven pressure to the receptacle's contact points. Given the safety implications, professional installation is advised to ensure complete protection for your children.

  • Concerns about inconvenience with childproof outlets are unwarranted. Operating these outlets is easy for adults, requiring no specialized knowledge or strength. To use, apply simultaneous equal pressure on both sides while inserting a plug into the receptacle, opening the cover plate for standard functionality. For those needing further clarification, virtual demonstrations are accessible through resources like the Electrical Safety Foundation International website or by consulting our knowledgeable team. We also provide childproof cable outlets and more for added safety.
