  11. Electrical Safety - Did you know that double adaptors are not to be used at the ANU (as they have no overload protection)?  The use of private owned electrical appliances (such as heaters and fans) is discouraged. All non ANU owned electrical appliances (unless exempt) must be inspected, tested and tagged before being used in University workplaces. The cost of testing and tagging (by a competent person or external company) is to be covered by the appliance owner. Power boards should include a circuit breaker. Extension cords should only be used as a temporary solution. For detailed policy on this, please click here: https://policies.anu.edu.au/ppl/document/ANUP_000572
