Hi, I'm Billy. I've been involved in some
huge DIY projects.
2
00:00:05,100 --> 00:00:06,840
In homes and in gardens.
3
00:00:07,260 --> 00:00:11,160
I've seen excellent and I've seen some disasters.
4
00:00:12,500 --> 00:00:16,320
Every year, people get injured when they come in contact
5
00:00:16,320 --> 00:00:19,180
with overhead powerlines and underground cables.
6
00:00:19,680 --> 00:00:24,820
So it's essential you follow SP Energy Networks' safety advice and
7
00:00:24,880 --> 00:00:28,460
make sure you can enjoy the benefits of your hard work.
8
00:00:29,340 --> 00:00:36,060
If your electricity is supplied by an underground cable and you're planning to do digging work in your garden,
9
00:00:36,060 --> 00:00:39,740
contact SP Energy Networks for safety advice.
10
00:00:40,860 --> 00:00:43,520
Underground cables don't run in straight lines.
11
00:00:43,520 --> 00:00:48,620
Make sure you don't use picks, pinch bars or garden forks to dig near.
12
00:00:49,940 --> 00:00:53,980
Electricity cables and power lines should always be treated as live,
13
00:00:53,980 --> 00:00:58,400
unless confirmed otherwise by SP Energy Networks.
14
00:00:59,080 --> 00:01:05,240
Electricity can jump gaps, always maintain a safe distance from overhead powerlines.
15
00:01:06,060 --> 00:01:12,500
In an emergency dial 999 and let the emergency services know your location and
16
00:01:12,500 --> 00:01:15,360
that there's live electricity involved.
