A 'Aw - y 1 w , KM A' vf I m ft m I Jt - Sailing on our inland lakes and reservoirs takes a great deal of skill especially to do it safely. And, while most "weekend sailors" take the necessary precautions for water safety, they often overlook one hazard: electric power lines. Accidents with sail boats and power lines, both in and out of the water, occur when a careless "sailor" forgets to look up. An aluminum mast or metal guy wires act as efficient high-voltage electricity conductors between the line and the water or ground. Even wooden masts with metal guy wires can become conductors. The result: "man-made lightning"! To avoid the danger, Utah Power suggests that you raise the mast. only after the boat's in the water never transport a boat with the mast up, even for short distances. Remember to launch your craft only in prescribed launching areas. Always look up when approaching shore or any docking installations. At Utah Power, we do everything we can to make electricity safe for you. And if you're a sailor, be aware of power lines to be sure you're safe. Electricity Key to a Better Environment 4 |
