Safety

Keeping our employees, members, families and the public safe is our number one priority. It has to be in this industry. Electricity is a wonderful thing but only when it is used properly. It is easy to take electricity for granted and forget how dangerous it can be when you can’t see it, hear it or feel it. That is why we offer many resources to educate you and your family on living and working around electricity. Click on the links to the right to learn more.

Every year, we bring the Live Line Demo to local schools to educate young drivers on how to handle accidents involving electric lines. School participation is based on a three year rotation. Interested in watching Live Line Demo yourself? We’d be happy to invite you to the next demonstration in your area open to the public. Let us know.
