There are risks and hazards everywhere in life, some are obvious and can be easily seen and others require more investigation to reduce the risk and remove or at least minimise the risk. When it comes to electricity you cannot see it and where it is flowing and this is why it can be so dangerous.
Let’s say, for example, you are using your toaster. Electricity flows through the elements and cooks the toast, but if it were able to flow through the outside of the toaster, i.e. the case, then you would likely get an electric shock which obviously could be fatal.
To reduce the risk of this happening companies/organisations etc will often inspect and test electrical equipment routinely to ensure there is no obvious visual or mechanical faults and then test the item to make sure it is electrically safe.
