Attention to safety: cutting trees and safe distance 

If tree branches are already touching the power lines, please submit a request to local authorities. Local authorities will inform the energy workers, who will arrange disconnection of the line for safe works performance. This will help avoid electrocution during cutting of trees! 

Important: Cutting should be carried out, if: 

  • tree branches are closer than 2 meters to the line; 
  • branches hang over the wires; 
  • the trees are in emergency condition and may fall and damage the grids in case of bad weather. 

Let’s free the grids from branches together! Take care of your safety and safety of your neighbors. Join the autumn campaign of DTEK Kyiv Regional Grids to protect the grids and get a chance to win the meter for your home!
