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 greater awareness of overhead power lines and by using safe electrical practices during work and 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.
