At Play

Playing It Safe

By definition, playing is a carefree experience. As such, it’s difficult to keep safety top of mind. Playing in, or near water is recognized as a potentially dangerous, and generally speaking, we have learned to take precautions with water-based activities. But playing on land, away from traffic, is seen as non-threatening, when in fact the opposite is true.

High voltage wires, transformers and substations are all around us, and should be considered even more dangerous than deep water and undertows. Kite flying and tree climbing near power lines can be fatal. Throwing objects onto power lines and climbing the fences surrounding substations can also have very serious consequences.

Awareness and education are critical in preventing tragedies from occurring.
