Balloons can electrocute

SUMMER brings an increase
in novelties obtained by
children from local fairs,
and B.C. Hydro’s safety ad-
visers warn of a hazard in-
volving helium balloons and
power lines.

The balloons can become
dangerous conductors of
electricity if they become en-
tangled in overhead lines,
said Earle Pritchett of
Hydro’s safety engineering
department.

“We're concerned about
children trying to retrieve the
balloons," he said. ‘Just
holding the string could be
enough to cause electrocu-
tion if it’s touching a power
line.”’

Parents and teachers
should warn children to keep
balloons away from
overhead lines and to make
no attempt to retrieve
balloons which get caught in
the lines,
