Working on conductors during rainfall is extremely dangerous, even if the line is newly constructed and has not yet been energised. Some people may assume that a new distribution line poses no danger because it is not connected to a power supply. However, anyone who has worked with a transmission company understands the risks involved.
During thunderstorms, lightning can strike a conductor or nearby structures and induce dangerous voltages in the line, even when it is not connected to an energised power source. Lightning carries an extremely high voltage and can cause severe injury or death through electric shock.
Therefore, never assume that a conductor is safe simply because it has not been energised. Rain, thunderstorms and lightning create additional hazards, making it essential to follow the appropriate electrical safety procedures and stop exposed work when conditions are unsafe.
Safety first: An une energised conductor is not necessarily a safe conductor, especially during a thunderstorm.
