CE Electric UK - which distributes electricity to its customers in the North-East of England, Yorkshire and Northern Lincolnshire through its subsidiary companies, Northern Electric Distribution Limited and Yorkshire Electricity Distribution plc - is urging young farmers to be on their guard when working near overhead power lines.

Every year, CE Electric UK receives reports of farm machinery that has come into contact with high voltage power lines with fatal and tragic consequences. Just remember the following tips:

  • Be aware - contact or getting
    too close to wires can kill
  • Keep machinery away from wires
  • Stay safe!
