Field Focus: Equipotential Grounding and Induction Safety

Step outside and experience safety in motion at the Outside Line Safety Expo on May 20 at SELCAT! Watch a live high-voltage demonstration showing how induced voltages can appear on deenergized lines near energized circuits. You’ll see the real-world effects of induction and explore the safe work methods, grounding techniques, and equipment choices that keep line crews protected in the field.

Our follow-up Equipotential Zone (EPZ) demonstration will show how careful planning and the right equipment setup help maintain safe conditions around stringing operations. This hands-on session brings safety principles to life—turning complex concepts into clear, practical applications you can take back to the jobsite.
