What Type of Electrical Outlets Do You Have?
If there is a baby or young child in your house, you will want to purchase some type of electrical outlet covers. But before you can select the style you want, you need to determine what type of outlets you have so that you can find one that will fit with your specifications.

·Standard outlets have only one screw in the middle of the outlet.
·Decorator outlets have two screws, one at the top and one at the bottom.
Once you know the type of outlet you have, the next step is to figure out what type safety outlet cover style you prefer and how many you will need. Then be sure to buy outlet covers that fit the style outlet you have.
