On Thursday, October 12th, Kentucky Transportation Cabinet District 12 partnered with Big Sandy RECC to teach road workers about power line safety. The winter season will be here soon, meaning higher chances of power lines going down and needing repairs. Numerous demonstrations were shown to highlight the dangers of electricity and how to avoid injury. Today we've partnered with Big Sandy RECC to try to learn some electrical safety to keep our crews safe with the upcoming winter season and the potential for downed trees to escalate. We thought that it would be a good idea to have this demonstration to make our guys aware when they're out in bad weather situations, whether it be snows or windstorms that come during the fall and winter months, that they are aware that these lines, even though they may not look energized, that they are energized and if they do get tangled up in one with a snowplow, that they know what to do to keep themselves safe. Because electric current is both invisible and silent, it can quickly lead to injury or death. Now the Cabinet's road workers are better prepared to handle downed power lines. We are always taught, you know, from a young age not to handle anything live or down, taught to us through school and everything as we're growing up, but you don't understand what the actual potential is and what damage it can occur if you do that. So it was a very eye-opening demonstration. This kind of gives a general idea across the board to everybody so that they will now be able to safely do their jobs and know, you know, what the potential dangers are and know how to protect not only themselves but other crew members.
