State Grid Zhumadian Power Supply Company sent a letter to the people of the city----- kite flying is strictly prohibited near the overhead power line

The broad masses of the people in the city:

Spring is coming, and in the leisure time, flying kites has become an entertainment way for the people to yearn for a better life. If you fly a kite near the overhead high-voltage line, it is very easy to induce accidents such as electric shock and power line tripping and power outage, in order to prevent the personal safety and safety of the operation of the high-voltage line due to kite flying, and to ensure the safety of the people's power supply, the following notice is hereby announced:

First of all, we must understand that the nylon wire of the kite will conduct electricity once it is damp, and there is a large kite with a conductive steel wire as a skeleton, once the kite is close to the naked wire, the current will transmit high voltage electricity to the human body through the kite line, and personal injury events may occur. Once the kite line is broken or the kite is wrapped around the wire, and then encounters a humid environment such as rain, the fluttering kite line will discharge peripheral equipment or pedestrians, as well as short circuits with adjacent wires, resulting in tripping and large-scale power outages, which is extremely dangerous and harmful. To do this, fly the kite in an open place, away from high-voltage power lines.

In order to protect the safe operation of power lines, Article 14 of the Regulations on the Protection of Electric Power Facilities of the State Council clearly stipulates that "flying kites in an area of 300 meters on each side of the overhead power line" is an act of endangering power line facilities and will be subject to an administrative fine of 500-5000 yuan; if the blackout accident caused by the kite hanging line, the perpetrator must compensate for the direct economic loss of the small power supply and all the losses caused to the third party (unit or individual) thereby. Those of a serious nature will be held criminally liable for the crime of sabotage of power equipment through negligence.

Protecting the safety of power facilities is inseparable from the active support and participation of the people. If you encounter a kite flying near the power line, or see the wire wrapped around the kite, please be able to give a reminder, stop, or call the Zhumadian power supply company service hotline: [phone] or call the 13393961260, the first timely report telephone our company will give a cash reward after on-site verification.
