Stars Off The Bench

Even the best maintained electrical distribution systems are susceptible to hazardous voltage conditions due to third-party damage, motor vehicle accidents, construction mishaps, utility service theft, damaged junction boxes and vandalism.  For safety reasons, many electric utilities are taking proactive steps to survey voltage potential on electrical distribution system components and other utility infrastructure. According to some reports, one in 337 light poles requires some form of remediation.
