Utility Safety Solutions: An On-Helmet Detector that Alerts Your Workers to Electrocution Hazards
The unique aspect about electricity that makes it so dangerous is that, by most accounts, it is not a danger that is easily detected through one's sense of sight or sound. In this episode, we sit down with lineman, trainer and Safeguard rep Brady Hansen, who tells us about an innovative utility safety product that is designed to act as a bit of a "sixth sense" for workers by providing an on-helmet audio/visual alert system for voltage and current detection.
Hansen will share his lineman's perspective about how this tool is saving lives in real-world applications—and he'll also share a couple of tales about some interesting wildlife encounters!
