Publications and guidelines relating to the safe use of electric outlet protectors are reviewed and summarized. 37 children, 2 and 4 years old, participated in the assessment of three different styles of outlet protectors 43 adults also participated in the assessment by removing the outlet protectors. A series of three outlet protectors were used to compare the difficulty of removing each protector. None of the three outlet protectors could prevent all the 2- and 4-yr.-olds from access to the electrical outlet openings. One style of outlet protector was much easier than the other two for the children to gain access to the electrical outlet openings. Results of this study indicate some outlet protectors may provide a false security to parents who elect to use these devices in the home.
对与安全使用电源插座保护盖相关的出版物和指南进行了回顾与总结。37名2至4岁的儿童参与了对三种不同样式电源插座保护盖的评估，43名成年人也通过取下保护盖参与了评估。使用了一系列三个电源插座保护盖来比较取下每个保护盖的难度。这三种电源插座保护盖都无法阻止所有2岁和4岁的儿童接触电源插座孔。有一种样式的电源插座保护盖让儿童更容易接触到电源插座孔。这项研究结果表明，一些电源插座保护盖可能会给选择在家中使用这些装置的父母提供一种虚假的安全感。
