Downed Power Lines
Do you know what to do if you see a power line down?
 
Electrical Safety Demonstration Connexus Energy believes in safety. Our goal of saving lives and reducing preventable power outages helped us to develop our high-voltage safety demonstration trailer.

Safety DemonstrationOur creative program is designed to teach children and adults in your community the potential dangers of contacting a power line. Providing this safety demonstration in your community is a great way to get people together to learn valuable information that may save a life. We teach electrical safety habits, demonstrate the power of electricity, and show the potential hazards associated with unsafe actions around power lines and household circuitry.

Participants will see first-hand the safety equipment used by electrical line workers. They will also get a close-up look at various conductors and components of the electrical distribution system and gain a clearer understanding of how the distribution system operates. A special emphasis on low-voltage power is also stressed during the demonstration, including the value of electrical outlets with a ground fault interrupter (GFI).

Connexus Energy's presentation vividly shows the effects of contact with 7200-volts of electricity. Demonstration covers safety at work, home, and play, including:
  • Ladders & Antennas
  • Construction Equipment
  • Downed Wires
  • Digging Dangers
  • Gopher State One Call
  • Electric Tools & Water
  • Ground Fault Circuit Interrupters (GFCIs)
  • Flying Kites
Connexus Energy is confident your group or organization will be safer after participating in our electrical safety program. The presentation takes approximately 45 minutes.
