Presentation Information

Electric "Safety City" involves a 50-minute presentation by SCANA employees or retirees who eagerly volunteer their time to do what they can to prevent needless injuries or death that may occur when someone comes into improper contact with electricity. Information presented is reinforced by video, booklets, posters and a table-top model of a small town which brings to life the effects of:

• Contacting overhead lines by a kite, metal pipe, antenna or tree climbing
• Contacting a pad-mounted transformer
• Contacting a substation transformer
• Contacting overhead lines with a sailboat mast
• Energizing a vehicle by a downed overhead line
• Energizing a metal fence by a downed overhead line
• Exploding a pole mount transformer
