• Don't put fingers or objects into an electrical outlet, toaster, or any other appliance, even it it's off.
  
• Don't use appliances -- and appliance cords -- near bathtubs and sinks.

• Don't climb trees near power lines.
  
• Don't fly kites or balloons around power lines. Electricity can travel down the strings of kites or balloons that become tangled in power lines, and can cause fire or shock.
  
• Don't ever try to remove anything from a power line. If you see something stuck on a power line, call Sierra Pacific's Electric Emergency Line at (775) 834-4100.

• Do use plug covers in outlets.
  
• Do only use balloons or kites in open areas, away from overhead lines. Keep metallic (Mylar) balloons indoors, as they are will conduct electricity.
  
• Do tell an adult to call the power company if a toy gets into power lines or a substation. Never try to get the the toy back yourself. An adult should call the power company to remove the toy.
  
• Do know to stay away from places where you see "Danger - High Voltage,""Warning - High Voltage," and "Caution - High Voltage" signs.
  
• Do stay away from power lines, substations, and pad-mounted transformers, which look like short, metal storage cabinets on cement slabs.
