Lubbock Power and Light reminds you to use
caution when using a ladder near power lines. Please practice safety
when planning repairs, remodeling or maintenance work around the house.
Keep the ladders and tools at least ten feet from power lines. Allow
a greater clearance around high-voltage lines. Use a clean, dry wood
or fiberglass ladder near electric lines. Do not use a metal ladder near
electrical lines. When installing or removing an antenna, make sure it is at least one-and-one
half times its total height away from any power lines. If the antenna starts
to fall, let it go and stay clear. Overhead power lines are not insulated.
What may look like insulation is merely weatherproofing material. Under
no circumstances should power lines be touched. |
