Accidents, severe storms and other disasters can cause power lines to come down. With one wrong move before, during or a ter a disaster, a life can be lost. Know the right steps to take to keep you and your family safe:

� If you see downed power lines, or other damaged electrical equipment, notify Central as soon as possible because the lines could still be energized or “live.”

� Just because power lines are damaged does not mean they are dead. Stay away, and instruct others to do the same.

� Treat all power lines as if they are energized until there is certainty that power has been disconnected.

� If a power line has landed on the ground, there is potential for the area nearby to be energized. Stay far away, and warn others to do the same.

� Do not attempt to drive over a downed power line.

Found a downed power line? Call Central at 405-372-2884.
