Dont Know Dont Dig Safety

Just 30cm below ground, you can find cables, pipes and 132,000 volts of electricity. That's enough to power up 10,000 homes and kill you in an instant. Every time you dig, you run the risk of being injured by an electric shock from striking underground electricity cables. Whatever the job, there is just one simple thing to remember before digging up any service - if you don't know what's underground, then don't dig.
