What is the proper method for installing extension cords suspended from a ceiling?

Using hooks
String or cord
Zip ties
Fasteners

The correct answer is: String or cord

The proper method for installing extension cords suspended from a ceiling involves using a method that does not damage the cord or create unsafe conditions. String or cord offers a lightweight and flexible option for hanging extension cords, allowing for easy adjustments and ensuring that the cord is securely but gently supported without restricting its operation. It helps to avoid unnecessary stress on the cord, which could affect its performance or safety. Hooks, while they may seem like a practical option, might not provide enough security to keep the cord stable and can risk creating a tripping hazard or allow the cord to become dislodged. Zip ties, on the other hand, can be too rigid and potentially restrict the movement of the cord or cause damage over time, leading to wear and tear that could create electrical hazards. Fasteners may not be appropriate either, as they might puncture or excessively strain the cord, compromising its integrity. By utilizing string or cord, you maintain both the safety and functionality of the extension cords while ensuring a tidy installation. Proper handling and installation are key principles to keeping work environments safe and organized.
