SHOCK

Never touch a fallen power line, or anything or anyone in contact with a power line. Instead, call Tampa Electric Company to de-energize the line.

ELECTRICAL FIRE

Call the fire department immediately. If necessary, use a CO2 or dry chemical extinguisher. Do not use water.

FIRST AID

Call for medical help immediately. If the individual is free from the power line, check the following:

• Breathing: Use mouth-to-mouth resuscitation or cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) if needed.

• Shock: Signs include cold or clammy skin, weakness, shallow breathing or rapid pulse. Loosen clothing. Keep victim horizontal and warm until help arrives.

• Burns: Cool minor burns with cold, running water. Don't touch the burn, break blisters or remove burned clothing. Get medical help; electrical burn damage may not be immediately apparent.
