June is Home Safety Month! Here's a reminder to keep you safe: When multiple devices pull power from a single outlet, circuits can overheat, damage wiring, and cause materials to ignite. The safest approach is to use the right‑sized cord for the job and avoid chaining or overloading.

Construction projects bring excitement, but they also bring serious electrical risks. This Electrical Safety Month, we're reminding members, contractors, and crews to look up before they dig, build, or haul.

⚠️ Always call 811 before digging. Underground lines can be just as dangerous as overhead ones.
🚧 Keep all equipment, like the boom on a truck, back hoes or dump trucks, at least 10 feet from power lines.
🏗️ If a vehicle contacts a power line, stay inside the cab, call 911, and warn others to stay back.
📋 Make sure your crew is briefed on overhead power line locations before any job begins.

Safety on the job site starts with knowing where the power begins and ends.
