All electrical appliance and tools should be stored safely when in proximity to __________.

Water
Fire
Sunlight
Heat sources

The correct answer is: Water

Storing electrical appliances and tools safely in proximity to water is crucial due to the risk of electric shock and short circuits. Water is a conductive substance, and if electrical devices come into contact with it, there's a significant danger of creating hazardous conditions. This risk is compounded in a barbering environment where water is frequently used, such as when washing hair or cleaning tools. Maintaining a safe distance between electrical tools and water helps ensure the safety of both the barber and clients. Proper storage practices mitigate the potential for accidents and promote a secure working environment. In contrast, while storing tools away from fire, sunlight, and heat sources is also important in preventing damage or hazards, it is the interaction with water that poses the most immediate and serious danger to safety.
