What should your hands be when plugging in or removing an electrical item from an outlet?

When handling electrical items, your hands should ideally be dry and free from any substances that could conduct electricity. The choice indicating “all the above” points to the importance of not having hands that are wet, dirty, or cold when plugging in or removing an electrical item. Wet hands can increase the risk of electric shock because water is an excellent conductor of electricity. Similarly, dirty hands might have conductive materials that could also pose a risk when working with electrical outlets. Cold hands might not directly contribute to electrical hazards, but they could indicate a lack of proper warmth, which may affect grips and the ability to handle electrical equipment securely. Therefore, the correct choice emphasizes the safe handling of electrical items through appropriate conditions of the hands.
