Your safety is important to us When working outside, you should always look up and note the location of power lines before you begin.

» Be careful to avoid power lines when you’re doing yard work, especially when using tools, ladders and poles.

» Be sure that ladders are far enough away so that you – and the ends of the tools you’re using – are more than 10 feet away from power lines.

» If you see a power line that is down or looks hazardous, call 911 and FPL at 800-4OUTAGE (800-468-8243).
