4. caused by ordinary combustibles
5. a floor mat that helps to eliminate static electricity by providing a path to ground from conductive items placed on the mat.
7. also known as Directive 2002/95/EC, originated in the European Union and restricts the use of six hazardous materials found in electrical and electronic products.
10. the transfer of electrical charge between any two objects.
11. caused by the igniting of liquids or gases
13. a device that allows your computer, or other equipment, to keep running in the event the primary power source is lost. The additional power, usually supplied by battery, allows a limited amount to time to properly shutdown equipment.
14. the result of cutting, especially an opening or wound made by sharp edge.
16. caused by exposure to live electrical wires
18. a joint program from the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the Department of Energy (DOE) that establishes standards for energy efficient products originated in the United States. The goal is to help individuals and businesses save money and protect the environment through the use of energy efficient products.
19. injuries produced by fire, heat, radiation, electricity, or a caustic agent.
20. an electrical device, often found on power strips, that is used to protect equipment against power surges and voltage spikes while blocking voltage over a safe threshold, usually 120V.

1. caused by the igniting of cooking oils or fats
2. An acronym that helps to remember the steps in using a fire extinguisher. Pull the pin. Aim low. Squeeze the level slowly and evenly. Sweep the nozzle from side-to-side.
3. a bag, usually silver, black, or pink, used for storing electronic components, which are prone to damage caused by electrostatic discharge.
6. aims to reduce the amount of waste and electrical/electronic equipment that ends up in landfills through improved product design to ease dismantling, recycling, and reuse.
8. the sudden stimulation of the nerves or convulsive contraction of the muscles that is caused by the discharge through the body of electricity from a charged source.
9. any of various musculoskeletal disorders, such as carpal tunnel syndrome, characterized by numbness, pain, or weakness of muscles, tendons, nerves, and other soft tissues, caused by the persistent repetition of certain physical movements.
12. an electrical device consisting of a cord on one end and several sockets on the other end used to expand the capacity of a wall outlet.
14. caused by the igniting of combustible metals
15. an adjustable conductive rubber wrist strap that protects sensitive components and computer boards from damage caused by static discharge.
17. Posture when using technology
