​Here are critical practices related to your appliances and outlets:

𝟏.𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐭𝐞𝐜𝐭 𝐀𝐠𝐚𝐢𝐧𝐬𝐭 "𝐕𝐚𝐦𝐩𝐢𝐫𝐞 𝐏𝐨𝐰𝐞𝐫"
Many modern devices are never truly "off."
They remain in "standby mode" and continue
to draw small amounts of electricity, which
can still generate heat. Unplugging them
completely is the only way to eliminate this
risk.

𝟐.​ 𝐀𝐯𝐨𝐢𝐝 𝐭𝐡𝐞 "𝐎𝐜𝐭𝐨𝐩𝐮𝐬 𝐎𝐮𝐭𝐥𝐞𝐭"
Do not overload a single power outlet or
power strip with too many plugs. While it is
safe to have multiple devices unplugged and
sitting nearby (as pictured), powering them
all from one source can cause overheating
and electrical failure.

𝟑. ​𝐂𝐡𝐞𝐜𝐤 𝐇𝐢𝐠𝐡-𝐇𝐞𝐚𝐭 𝐀𝐩𝐩𝐥𝐢𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐞𝐬
Daily Appliances like the electric kettle or the
microwave, which draws significant power
and generate heat, have a higher risk of
malfunction. It is especially critical that they
are never left plugged in when not actively in
use.

𝟒. 𝐄𝐧𝐬𝐮𝐫𝐞 𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐩𝐞𝐫 𝐕𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐒𝐩𝐚𝐜𝐞
Keep appliances like microwaves separate
from other objects. Overheating can occur if
airflow is blocked. The small amount of
space between the TV, microwave, and kettle
is crucial.

𝟓. ​𝐏𝐫𝐚𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐜𝐞 𝐂𝐨𝐫𝐝 𝐌𝐚𝐢𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐧𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐞
Never use appliances with frayed or
damaged power cords. This is one of the
leading causes of electrical fires. Do not pull
a cord to disconnect it; always grip the plug
itself, as seen in the hand-model
demonstration.

𝟔. ​𝐋𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐧 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐋𝐨𝐨𝐤 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐖𝐚𝐫𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐒𝐢𝐠𝐧𝐬
Immediately stop using and unplug any
appliance that:

> 𝘏𝘪𝘴𝘴𝘦𝘴, 𝘤𝘳𝘢𝘤𝘬𝘭𝘦𝘴, 𝘰𝘳 𝘮𝘢𝘬𝘦𝘴 𝘣𝘶𝘻𝘻𝘪𝘯𝘨
𝘴𝘰𝘶𝘯𝘥𝘴.
> 𝘚𝘮𝘦𝘭𝘭𝘴 𝘰𝘧 𝘴𝘮𝘰𝘬𝘦 𝘰𝘳 𝘣𝘶𝘳𝘯𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘱𝘭𝘢𝘴𝘵𝘪𝘤.
​> 𝘊𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘵𝘦𝘴 𝘴𝘱𝘢𝘳𝘬𝘴 𝘸𝘩𝘦𝘯 𝘱𝘭𝘶𝘨𝘨𝘦𝘥 𝘪𝘯 𝘰𝘳 𝘵𝘶𝘳𝘯𝘦𝘥
𝘰𝘯.
> 𝘍𝘦𝘦𝘭𝘴 𝘦𝘹𝘤𝘦𝘴𝘴𝘪𝘷𝘦𝘭𝘺 𝘩𝘰𝘵.

The Lamitan City Fire Station, led by SFO4 Anthony H Paculdo, Acting City Fire Marshal, recently conducted a comprehensive general lecture and practical demonstration for Criminology Interns as part of their specialized On-the-Job Training program. This session was designed to provide a foundational overview of the rigorous operational standards maintained by the Bureau of Fire Protection (BFP), focusing on essential protocols of fire science, community safety, and emergency management. Under the guidance of seasoned BFP personnel, the interns engaged in a detailed study of fire suppression strategies and the critical importance of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE), including hands-on drills for the efficient donning and doffing of firefighting gear.

Beyond the technical skills acquired, this lecture serves to strengthen the interns' understanding of the inter-agency cooperation required within the Philippine justice and public safety systems. By immersing these future professionals in an active departmental environment, the program emphasizes the core values of discipline, situational awareness, and the high level of preparedness necessary to safeguard the community. This commitment to mentorship ensures that the next generation of public servants is equipped with the practical proficiency and professional integrity required for their future careers.
