Be prepared for summer storms
EnergyAustralia is urging homeowners to prepare for the storm season as summer sets in. Their Summer Safety Guide can help homeowners keep themselves and their homes safe.
EnergyAustralia spokesperson, Geoff Lilliss, said the safety guide provided tips on what to do before, during, and after storms.
He said people should always assume any fallen powerlines were ‘live’ with electricity.
EnergyAustralia surveys show one in four people erroneously believe it is safe to touch powerlines with a broom handle.
