Fire risk increases in dry conditions, especially when there are strong winds.
To reduce the risk near power lines, we ask that you keep vegetation on your property clear of the lines.
If your trees need a trim, check our list of approved arborists. If you’re on a farm or lifestyle block, please keep any loose combustible material like hay bale wrapping tidy.
As your local lines company, we regularly inspect vegetation near power lines.
Managing trees is a community responsibility and by working together, we can help to keep everyone safe.
Be switched on to safety
- Keep trees on your property well clear of power lines
