Grade 6 Electrical Safety Program
Educating children about electrical safety is important, which is why Nova Scotia Power teams up with elementary schools across the province every year to offer the Grade 6 Electrical Safety Program.
Through an hour-long presentation, students learn how to be safe around electricity through dynamic and interactive materials developed specifically for the Nova Scotia Grade 6 curriculum. Nova Scotia Power offers the program to schools throughout the province at no cost.
Safe clearance reporting saves lives
Every year, Nova Scotians make dangerous contact with power lines. Whether you’re doing major commercial construction work or simple repairs to your home, ask yourself: will I come within six metres of a power line? If so, you need a Safe Clearance Report from Nova Scotia Power to safely carry out the job.
