abstract="Accidental scalds to New Zealand children under 5 years of age are identified as a prominent thermal injury. The electric jug is a product which is frequently involved in these accidents. The options for preventing these accidents are discussed. The authors argue that since passive strategies do not appear to be possible at present, active strategies are the only alternative. The difficulties associated with some specific active strategies are discussed and it is concluded that more has to be done than just providing a safeguard or safe alternative.<p />",
