Maintenance crews and contractors are as busy as bees inspecting the electric infrastructure throughout our system. You may see the following activities in your area.
Pole Inspections - Contractor crews test poles for signs of damage or decay. If a pole is rejected, construction crews will be back at a later date to replace it.
Right-of-Way (ROW) Vegetation Management - CVEC clears the corridor beneath and around its power lines to keep the lights on, as well as to keep your family and our line crews safe and sound. Read more about CVEC’s ROW program.
Drone Inspections - CVEC utilizes a drone contractor to perform a detailed aerial patrol of electric lines annually to locate potential problems on lines and line components before outages occur.
Watch for notices in the mail when crews will be working in your area or are performing work that may affect your service. Contractors will always have a magnetic sign identifying them as an authorized contractor for CVEC.
