The Electrical Safety Foundation International (ESFI) is a non-profit organization dedicated exclusively to promoting electrical safety at home and in the workplace. To commemorate National Electrical Safety Month each May, ESFI spearheads an annual campaign to educate key audiences about the steps that can be taken to reduce the number of electrically related fires, fatalities, injuries, and property loss.
ESFI is excited to announce that its National Electrical Safety Month 2025 campaign will focus on e-mobility, lithium-ion battery safety, and disaster safety. The materials for this year’s campaign educate the public on how to purchase, use, and recycle lithium-ion batteries safely, and how to avoid electrical hazards when preparing for or recovering from a natural disaster.
Included in the campaign materials is a video that details what to know before purchasing a rechargeable device; how to dispose of rechargeable devices; how to safely use LI-ION batteries, as well as infographics for first responders to assist them in identifying lithium-ion battery fires and how to safely extinguish them.
