Answer:
1. If you are flying a kite and it gets caught in the overhead power lines, the electricity can travel down the cord and potentially cause serious injury. ... Don't attempt to pull the kite free, high voltage electricity can travel down the string; Keep yourself and other people well away.
2.A power overload point is when the maximum amperage of the electrical circuit is exceeded. Plugging too many appliances into a single power point can cause this. A short circuit and possibly a fire can be the result of an overload.
3.Also, undergrounding power lines may make them more susceptible to damage from corrosive storm surge and flooding from rainfall or melting ice and snow. Areas with greater vulnerability to storm surge and flooding will confront systems that are less reliable (and at greater cost) as a result of undergrounding.
4.Frayed or damaged cords should be replaced immediately or the appliance disposed of. Many old plugs do not have safety barriers between the connections – replace them with modern plugs or dispose of the appliance.
5.Birds can sit on power lines and not get electric shocks because the electricity is always looking for a way to get to the ground. The birds are not touching the ground or anything in contact with the ground, so the electricity will stay in the power line.
