Electrician is avoiding risk in baths (6)
I believe the answer is:
sparks
'electrician' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'is avoiding risk in baths' is the wordplay.
'avoiding' is a deletion indicator.
'in' is an insertion indicator.
'baths' becomes 'spas'.
'risk' going within 'spas' is 'sparisks'.
'sparisks' with 'is' taken away is 'SPARKS'.
(Other definitions for sparks that I've seen before include "Bright discharges" , "They fly from fire" , "Electricians (informal)" , "Fiery particles emitted by fire" , "Electric discharges" .)
