TEJ HS1 Quiz Electricity Safety Student

The document contains an electricity safety quiz with true/false and multiple choice questions about electrical safety. Some key points covered in the questions include: the purpose of fuses and circuit breakers is to interrupt overloaded circuits; the grounding wire prevents electric shock from stray voltage; low voltage circuits between 5-9V still pose a shock hazard if they cause high current shorts; and dry, thick skin offers more resistance to electricity than other body parts like fingers or wet skin. The quiz questions cover electrical hazards like fire and shock risks from faulty equipment, overloading circuits, and damaged plugs or insulation.
