Overhead Utility Line Safety

Always look up and be aware of overhead utility lines.

Always be cautious around overhead utility lines, whether you’re at home or on the job. Coming into contact with these high-voltage lines can cause serious injuries or even be fatal. Keep ladders, tools, and equipment at a safe distance, and never touch or go near a downed line—always assume it’s live. Staying alert and aware helps keep you and those around you safe.
