NEMA has a free publication on how to evaluate electrical equipment that has been exposed to water through flooding, hurricanes, and other events involving large quantities of water. It’s designed for use by suppliers, installers, inspectors, and users of electrical products.
NEMA and the Electrical Safety Foundation Internation have developed a Storm Reconstruction Toolkit that includes banners and images for your unlimited use on Websites, email, and social media outlets. We are asking all our channel partners to help us promote electrical safety to contacts in areas devastated by Hurricanes Harvey and Irma.
Please feel free to download and post across your platforms as you deem appropriate: http://www.nema.org/Storm-Disaster-Recovery/Pages/Hurricane-Toolkit-for-Channel-Partners.aspx
