As school is back in session, AEP Ohio remains committed to educating children about electrical safety. Mike LaScola, one of our external affairs managers, shares insights on how he uses Safety Town, an electrified, interactive presentation that brings common situations to life for all ages. Watch the video below and discover how this program teaches important safety lessons to kids in a fun and memorable way.
Important Reminders
- Stay Safe: If you see a fallen wire, do not approach.
- Stay Away: Keep as far away as possible from fallen wires and anything they may be touching.
- Call for Help: Call 911 and AEP Ohio at 800-672-2231 immediately.
- Be Alert: Carefully investigate your surroundings before cleaning up any storm debris. Tree limbs, leaves and other objects moved by the wind could be hiding downed wires and could be electrified.
