Warns about power lines Don't lay your life on the line, Pacific Gas and Electric Company warns, When working with high rising equipment, show a lot of respect for power lines. Cranes, booms, scaffolding, drilling rigs, hay derricks, nut shakers and irrigation pipe become dangerous electrical conductors when they touch overhead power lines, PG&E says. Before installing television antennas, be sure that guy lines, masts and antenna will not come into contact with any power lines, Don't raise irrigation pipe until you are certain the pipe will not come into contact with any power line. Play it safe. Never move construction rigs with the boom up, or lift pipe, or shake nuts from trees without first checking for the location of power lines. State law makes it a misdemeanor, punishable by fine or imprisonment, or both, to operate any tool or equipment within six feet of power lines. If it becomes necessary to operate equipment within the six foot limit, notify the nearest PG&E office and arrange for the line to be de-energized or moved, the company says. Remember, look up — and look out for power lines. It could save your life.
