Electrical Safety Tips

When there is lightning stay away from trees and get inside.

Do not climb too close to power lines.

Buried power lines can be anywhere. Call Peru Utilities to locate buried power lines.

Never fly kites around power lines. If your kite flies into power lines, let go!

You can help save a life by keeping an eye out for electrical dangers.

Remember: Only qualified workers can work on electric parts or equipment that is not de-energized. And even they have to operate very carefully, using specialized equipment, personal protective equipment, and safety techniques.
