Child Safety Socket Safety Covers - which are safe and which are dangerous?
If you have, or look after toddlers or young children, you'll know just how inquisitive they are about electrical sockets and plugs, so it's obviously going to be a key area of concern as far as safety is concerned.
With so many safety products on the market to help you protect your children against electrical accidents, including socket safety covers and socket inserts, deciding which is the best option can be confusing, ...but do you know which ones may actually increase the risk to your children?
A popular choice over recent years has been the Socket Insert (also sometimes called a plug cover or safety plug), however in recent tests by an independent body, not only are many of these products poorly designed and manufactured, but the fundamental concept of the product is flawed
...and the product actually increases the risk of accidents to your child.

...watch a video showing the problem with socket inserts and why they are so dangerous
A Safe Alternative is the Socket Safety Cover, which encloses the whole socket.
These products not only prevent children from playing with the socket, but they also stop them pulling out plugs or switching off equipment in use.
Just think of the consequences of your toddler switching off your PC in mid flight! ...it could cause all sorts of problems from data corruption, to loss of work in progress, ...and how much would it cost you if your freezer was switched off?
It really is one of lifes No-brainers! - a low cost Socket Safety Cover is a great investment as it not only eliminates the risk to your toddler ...but also to your equipment!
