 Safe
Electricity is the
award-winning safety
program of the
Illinois Electric
Council.
This multimedia
public awareness
program is designed
to compliment the

of utilities and
educators.
Launched in May
2001, Safe
Electricity is a
unified industry
effort. A task force
representing
electric
cooperatives,
investor-owned
electric utilities
and the University

the statewide
program, leveraging
the common interest
and strong
commitment within
the electric
industry to promote
electrical safety.
This innovative
outreach program
uses a vast array of
multimedia,
communication tools,
including: a
comprehensive web
site,
www.safeelectricity.org,
television and radio
public service
announcements (PSAs),
periodic news
releases and
articles,
billboards, and
more.
 SafeElectricity.org
is a
universal resource,
a virtual library of
safety information
for children and
adults, farmers,
contractors,
business people,
homeowners, teachers
– in essence
everyone. The site
is continually
updated and
expanded, and
includes interactive
safety games and
activities for
children and
additional teacher
resources such as
lesson plans and
classroom
experiments, all of
which meet National
Science Education
Standards.
