DO-IT-YOURSELF

 
Do not touch power lines

Have help to install a satellite dish or any antenna. Touching a power lines with a ladder, satellite dish or antenna could cause serious injury. Satellite dishes and antennas should be installed well away from power lines - at least the distance of the height of the antenna, plus 3 meters.

Take extra care when working near power lines

Don't come too close to power lines with equipment. Anyone touching any equipment that has come into contact with a power line could be seriously injured. Before digging, call to arrange for the utility to locate underground cables. (see the Services or Contact Us pages) To cut through an underground cable is dangerous and could cause a widespread power outage.

Use proper cords
Power tools should have either a three-prong plug or double insulation. If you need an extension cord, use a proper three wire grounded cord. Keep all tools and cords in good condition and never use power tools on wet grass or other wet surfaces.
