Key safety issues:Pylons and overhead power linesNever carry long objects, such as fishing rods, or fly kites or model aeroplanes where they can touch or go near overhead electricity lines. The electricity can travel down them and through you to the ground. This could cause serious burns and electric shocks which can kill you.
Electricity can even jump gaps so don’t go anywhere near the wires.
