Overhead Line Safety Education

Safety is one of the core values at Lane-Scott Electric. This includes educating our employees, members and the public about electricity. One of the tools we use for electrical education is a High-Voltage Overhead Line Demonstration. 

Lane-Scott Electric's demonstrations are available to schools, businesses, trainings, or safety days of any kind. The demonstration trailer is set on an open trailer equipped with poles, wires, transformers, meters and other items to replicate distribution lines.

We adjust the demonstration appropriately for the audience, but typically includes:

• What happens when various objects or a person come into contact with electricity.

• How to identify an energized line.

• What step-potential is.

• What to do in the event your vehicle contacts a high-voltage line. 

• Protective gear linemen use.

• Why birds can safely sit on an energized line.

To schedule a demonstration fill out the form to the right or call our office during business hours at 620-397-5327 or 800-407-2217.

Please allow our safety team 2 weeks notice prior to your desired demonstration date.
