That's why it's wise to have a good battery-operated radio and at least one flashlight-with a supply of fresh batteries for both-available for emergency use. Here's what else you can do: * Examine all electrical cords for loose connections, frayed sections or defective plugs. If you find nothing turn off or disconnect all appliances and lights and replace the fuse or reset the circuit breaier once more. * If the fuse blows or the circuit breaker trips again there is a short circuit in the house wiring. This is serious. Call an electrician. elf the house wiring is okay, an appliance is causing the problem. Plug in one appliance at a time until you find the one causing the problem. Repair or replace it. * If neighbouring houses are also blacked out, the problem probably lies with your electric power company. In case of a full power failure, turn off the appliances in the house to avoid overloading the circuits when power is restored. Leave one light or radio on to alert you when service resumes. Wait about 10 minutes before turning on other appliances. * Open the refrigerator and freezer as little as possible during the blackout. Food should stay frozen for. up to 48 hours ina fully loaded freezer if it's kept closed. If a blackout occurs in freezing weather: *Close off all but the most essential and best insulated rooms.

A quick and simple way of finding invisible drafts is to take a piece of celophane or plastic wrap and hang it from a coat hanger with a clothes pin. On a cold, windy day, pass this in front of areas where you suspect drafts. The celophane wilil flutter when it meets a draft. amember of Q EnerMark The Electricity People
