5. Don’t forget
to turn off all
Christmas lighting
when the whole family
away from’ home, or during sleeping hours.
1. Don’t overload
electrical circuits, use
proper size fuses and be
certain all lighting
sets and fixtures are UL approved
6. Before putting
them up, test all
outdoor lighting inside
.
;:'\j,away from damp or
concrete surfaces. Then, hang lights from
insulated screw-in hooks or secure with
insulated staples. Bare staples could
crack the plastic insulation and
cause a short.
2. Test
strings of lights before
mounting them on your
tree or house. It’s not only
safer, but eliminates a lot of work in case
the set does not operate properly.
3. Remember that indoor
lights should be suspended from tree
branches by the
clips provided on
most strings of lights.
If they need
to be tied, use ribbon or string. And be sure
that lights do not touch flammable
surfaces or materials.
7. Also, when
installing or
changing outdoor
lighting l>e careful of
standing on damp surfaces. And always
use a wooden ladder, not a metal one.
4. Christmas lights for
indoor
7 watts each.
So the maximum
number of lights
that should be
connected to a single
outlet is 85.

holiday spirit, so enjoy it!
But please remember to install and
use it safely, for your family’s sake.
One of the nice things about this time
of year, for us, is the chance to send
you season’s greetings
