Electricity is a great convenience that we all have become accustomed to, but it can be dangerous, even fatal. Your safety is a concern for us at Twin Valleys Public Power District. Please take some time and review these links so you know what to do to protect your house, your buildings, your family, and yourself.
Electricity needs to have a complete circuit back to its source and flows only when it completes that circuit. Conductors are materials that allow electricity to flow. Aluminum, brass, copper, silver, gold, and water make good conductors. Glass, rubber, and plastic are poor conductors. Human bodies are excellent conductors of electricity because they are 70% water. Make sure the electrical circuit is not completed through you.
