Common household actions, such as leaving electrical devices plugged in or charging batteries unattended, significantly increase fire risks. Data from IGSU reveals a concerning rise in fire incidents linked to electrical equipment. Between January 2024 and August 2026, firefighters responded to 865 fires caused by electrical devices.
