| Safety | First |
Safety should always come first whenever you are around electricity. Here are some essential safety tips for you, your family and your business.
- Stay away from downed power lines and broken utility poles. Notify us immediately whenever you see one.
- Make sure your children understand the danger of downed power lines. Have them visit our online Kids Korner for fun and informative safety lessons.
- Never attempt to remove trees or limbs from power lines. Call us.
- If you use a back-up generator to provide electricity for your home, farming operation, or other business, you could injure or kill a utility worker who is working on the line if it is not installed properly. Contact Carroll EMC for assistance in installing and operating back-up generators.
- Electricity and water don't mix. Never touch anything electrical while standing in water or while in the bathtub or shower.
