Lipetsk children became friends with electricity

Power engineers arranged a holiday in Victory Park.

A fairy tale about electricity was told by Lipetskenergo’s employees to children who came to Victory Park on Saturday. It turns out that it can not only shine, warm up and create comfort in the house. Electricity can be dangerous if misused. How to make friends with the one who lives in wires, the children learned during cheerful competitions and relay races.

The main friend of electricity is the power engineer. The children made him ready for work at a speed. Dielectric boots, helmets, special gloves - here it is a reliable protection against high voltage. And what if you do not have special uniform? Look at special signs. What signs warn of dangerous electricity - Lipetsk children now know "perfectly".

And if someone has a problem? What to do in this case, the children were explained using a dummy "Gosha". The children learned how to check whether the heart beats and even tried to help the training robot come back to life.

Sockets, wires, electrical appliances are not toys. With them you need to be careful: do not pull, do not sunk in the water, do not push foreign objects - bright puzzles and colouring books told the children about it.

"All wires should be treated with respect and once again do not touch them. Starting a kite, run away from power lines farther away, or it will get entangled in them and you can be electrocuted. If you go fishing with your parents, move away with a fishing rod far from wires, and the rest will be a joy," Dmitry Korotkov, a safety specialist of IDGC of Centre - Lipetskenergo division told the children about the basic rules of safe rest.

Prizes and gifts were given to young "electricians" for correct answers and good mood. A seven-year-old Lisa Markina even told a poem:

- Far, to the villages, to the cities

It goes along wires,

Light Majesty!

This is ... Electricity.

I now know that it is necessary to talk with it with respect, and then it will always help and come to the rescue. And any liberties, it’s not for His Majesty - electricity. It can punish, - the girl told.

Lipetskenergo’s employees plan to conduct cheerful lectures on electrical safety all summer long. The power engineers are ready to go to children’s camps in all districts of the Lipetsk region.
