when planting trees, location is everything.
The right tree in the right place can help protect you and your family from coming in
contact with overhead power lines. So when your child tries to climb it or you need to
trim it, you know your trees are located in a safe place.
Also, placing trees away from power lines helps improve reliability. More than half
of all power outages are caused by trees or limbs touching or falling on power lines.
So plant your trees and shrubs away from electric lines and equipment and give
them plenty of room to grow.
