Safety Precautions taken❗️: 1.Do not handle the electrical plugs when hands are wet 2.Clear the working area, i.e. do not put laptop within 1 m of the working area 3.Do not place the water containers near the edges of a table to prevent them from dropping off Roles & Responsibilities Name Team Leader (Ensures all procedur
