To stay safe around electricity, Ted needs to avoid touching any wires that are currently attached to the outlet. This is to avoid any contact and sudden shock since the human body is composed of water which is a viable conductor of energy.

The right answer is C) Make sure electrical hazards are resolved immediately.

The different electrical risks are:

Risk of direct contact with an electrified part

Risk of indirect contact with a conductive part accidentally switched on

Risk of "remote" electrification (without contact), by priming

Risks of fire and exposure, due in particular to arcing during a short circuit, and the accumulation of static electricity causing sparks.
