Overhead Powerline Warning and Yellow Worker Cutout Signs



Working near overhead powerlines

Whether its an Elevated Work Platform (EWP), Mobile Crane, Concrete Pump, Tipper Truck, Ladder, Scaffold or even a jet of water, the outcome of contact with overhead powerlines can be very serious and often even fatal.

What is the risk?

Any voltage that causes sufficient current to pass through the heart – such as that found in live overhead power lines – can cause serious injury or death.

The discharge of electrical energy from contact with power lines can also cause serious burns, fires and explosions that can immobilise the equipment involved.

You don’t even have to have direct contact with a high voltage line to receive a fatal electric shock. Electricity can arc or jump across gaps, meaning that simply being too close can kill.

Even if a worker survives a close encounter with high voltage, their injuries can require intensive medical care and may render them out of action indefinitely.

It is important to have the correct signage to warn those operating machines, vehicles or working on raised platforms of the risks of working near powerlines.
