Why is electricity dangerous?
Electricity is dangerous because it has the potential to cause severe harm or even death. It can deliver a devastating shock, leading to electrical burns or cardiac arrest. In the UK, we use electricity every day for lighting, heating, and operating appliances, but if not handled properly, it can be hazardous. Misuse such as short-circuiting, overloading sockets or poor wiring can result in fires, generating another type of danger. Additionally, electricity is invisible and silent, which makes it even more dangerous as it can't always be detected until it's too late.
