MILTON, ONT. — Milton Hydro Distribution Inc. has partnered with UtilityPulse, an independent feedback gathering company, to conduct an Electrical Safety Awareness Survey in the form of a short quiz.
The survey is open to all residents over the age of 18 of Milton and the Milton Hydro service area, including Campbellville. It runs until March 15 and can be accessed through Milton Hydro’s website. Although some general demographic information is collected to help Milton Hydro better target its educational campaigns in the future, participants won’t be asked to provide any identifying details, nor will their individual results be shared with anyone other than the participants, the release indicates.
The quiz format of the survey includes six quick questions that are focused on common electrical safety concerns such as safe distances from powerlines, how to locate underground electrical lines before construction projects, safe behaviour around green transformers and vehicle safety around downed powerlines.
With a focus on education, the quiz will provide participants with their results along with the correct answers to ensure adoption of electrical safety knowledge. To further increase awareness within the community, participants are encouraged to take the quiz with young children present and to share the link with the young adults in their household over the age of 18.
The survey results will be analyzed to better understand the level of awareness of common safe electrical practices in the Milton community and how the utility can continue to improve their educational campaigns in the future, adds the release.
Milton Hydro conducts the Public Awareness of Electrical Safety Survey every two years in accordance with the Ontario Energy Board’s requirements.
The quiz will only take approximately five minutes to complete and can be accessed at http://selfserve.decipherinc.com/b/1f95/g2cc/240214?list=2
