Public safety is everyone's responsibility. This is why that which can be a danger to the public must be immediately addressed; this includes downed power lines. Downed or damaged power lines can pose a serious threat to the public but they also bring massive inconvenience when damaged. As soon as a lines are downed, companies must immediately begin repairing downed power lines.
Power lines can get damaged through accidents and as a result of severe weather conditions. Both scenarios can result in broken utility poles and power lines on the ground. Even though damaged, lines are still live and can cause electrocution to people and animals. Power line storm response that is immediate can prevent these threats. Immediate repair of power lines also ensures the restoration of power which is vital for both businesses and residents.
It is also important to conduct regular repair and maintenance to overhead power lines as part of safety and preventative measures. This ensures that power lines and poles are up to standard. To find out more about repairing downed power lines, contact ElecComm.
