Our Public Safety Department is responsible for keeping our customers and the public safe and informed about the possible dangers of electricity.
Together, our Customer Service and Public Safety departments ensure our customers have access to accurate, relevant information on the proper use and handling of electricity. Each year, our Public Safety employees target students throughout Arizona with an educational outreach program. The department also has reached hundreds of maintenance workers, city employees, firefighters and arborists with targeted electrical safety presentations. To support the outreach efforts, the department launched a safety billboard campaign that encouraged people to be cautious of activities around electric lines and equipment.
Our Construction department maintains three electrical safety demonstration trailers that show the dramatic impact of electrical current on living tissue. To ensure the highest level of safety, only trained, experienced personnel operate the trailer. In 2003, we conducted nearly 75 presentations reaching more than 3,000 people.
