Pre-Travel Home Electricals Checklist
It’s not just smart to take precautions before traveling—it’s essential. Especially in some locations in the Philippines where power fluctuations are common, it will help you have peace of mind and avoid potential electrical fires by following this checklist.
- Unplug all appliances, chargers, adapters, and decorative lighting.
- Dispose of highly perishable items from your refrigerator (if you’re going away for one week.)
- If you’ll be gone for an extended period, consider emptying and unplugging the refrigerator completely.
- Turn off circuit breakers for areas of the house you won’t be using.
- If possible, ensure your main power supply switch is accessible for family or neighbors who might need to check on your home.
- Ensure no electrical cords are near water sources
- Cover outdoor outlets to protect from the rain.
If you have a family or neighbor who can check on your home if you’ll be away for longer, make sure to leave contact information. You may also prepare a list of electricals they may need to check and the location of your home’s main electrical switches.
Take note of this home electricals checklist and have a worry-free holiday experience! A little preparation goes a long way in preventing potential electrical issues and giving you the freedom to fully enjoy your break.
