    Very Sad, Few things

    Most house warming ceremonies happen with a temporary electric connection, loose wires, incomplete work and earthing without circuit breakers and on top of this uinsulated joints for decoration lights of all types

    Take care, if big or small home:
    MCB are installed and they function
    Fuse exist to break when overloaded, do not use strong copper wire for fuse.
    Earthing... most neglected .. ensure its done right with right material
    If you dont know about basics of electricity and identify L and N never try to repair by yourself
    Minor damage of plugs switches, wire must be attended immediately

    Reduce sime luxuries but never compramise on safety

    See the joy turned into sorrow.Everyone person has their own dream.A dream to have their own house.And when all set for house warming what a tragedy in the form of death.No one can fill this loss.
