Tamper Resistant Outlets (Child Safety Outlets)


Call Roselle Electric For Service-630-980-6074 or 847-605-0300

Why require tamper-resistant electrical receptacles?Each year, approximately 2,400 children suffer severe shock and burns when they stick items into the slots of electrical receptacles. It is estimated that there are six to 12 child fatalities a year related to this.

Why are TR receptacles preferred over products such as receptacles with caps or with sliding receptacle covers?Receptacle caps may be lost and also may be a choking hazard for some ages. Children can learn to defeat sliding receptacle covers when they watch their parents. TR receptacles provide security against the insertion of objects other than cord plugs into the energized parts.
