Downed power lines are extremely dangerous. If you ever see one, stay at least 10 feet away from the line and anything touching it.

Shuffle away in small steps, keeping your feet together and on the ground. This reduces the risk of a severe electric shock.

Electricity will always look for a path from high voltage to low voltage, and it could travel through your body if you’re too close.

 

If you see a downed line, call CHELCO at 850-892-2111 or 800-342-0990. 
If you think you or anyone else may be in danger, call 911.
