Look Up! For Overhead Power Lines

Overhead power lines carry thousands of volts of electricity. Accidental contact with one of these wires may result in serious injury or death.  Almost all of these accidents can be avoided with a greater awareness for overhead power lines and by incorporating safe electrical practices during work or play. Always keep your tools, equipment, and yourself at least 10 feet from overhead power lines. Know the height of all equipment before attempting to move them under power lines.  Completely lower equipment before transporting.
