is to be used in an emergency When an electric shock occurs, it is important to not touch the victim, as this may cause the rescuer to also be shocked. Instead, the rescuer should try to disconnect the power source, by turning off the main switch or unplugging the appliance. If this is not possible, the rescuer can use a non-conductive object such as a piece of wood or plastic to move the victim away from the electrical source. Once the victim is free from the source of the electric shock, call for medical help immediately. If the victim is not breathing, begin CPR (Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation) if trained to do so. Continue CPR until medical help arrives or the victim begins to breathe on their own. If there is a risk of further electrocution, ensure that the area is made safe before attending to the victim.
