Safety Awareness is a priority to Palmetto Electric Cooperative.

It is our never-ending goal to educate our members and the community at large about the potential dangers and hazards associated with electricity.

Palmetto Electric also takes its electrical safety demonstration into local schools, camps, recreation centers and more to reach as many children in the community as possible. Online resources and the Virtual Safety Days program allow children and adults to access safety material anytime they want! Linny the Lineman, Palmetto Electric’s safety mascot, is a much-requested presence at educational functions as well as local festivals.

Save the Date for 2025 Virtual Safety Days! Linny will be taking the fun online during the 6th Annual Virtual Safety Days, July 15-17, online at the co-op’s Facebook page, YouTube channel and palmetto.coop. Videos will be LIVE, below at 10AM and 1PM each day. Linny and friends from the community will be sharing videos and daily activities covering a variety of safety topics including electrical safety, online safety, wildlife safety and more. We encourage you to talk with your children about playing it safe around electricity and take advantage of our online resources designed to help families 'Play It Safe!'

 


2025 Virtual Safety Days 

Welcome to the 2025 Virtual Safety Days Program! Join Palmetto Electric's Gerald Malphrus as we kick off the program and learn how to play it safe around electricity this summer! Electricity is a wonderful thing, but we must know how to operate it safely. #playitsafe

Did you know that all of Palmetto Electric Cooperative's electrical lines are now underground on Hilton Head Island? Just because you don't see wires hanging above you anymore, does not mean there aren't dangers associated with underground equipment as well. Join Palmetto Electric's linemen, Tanner Massey and Leighton Brown, as they explain how underground electrical equipment works and how to stay safe around it! *FOR THE PURPOSE OF THIS VIDEO, ALL EQUIPMENT IS DE-ENERGIZED*

LIVE at 10AM on 7/16/25: Safety is a core value at Palmetto Electric Cooperative, which means it is a top priority! Join our Safety Manager, Dustin McGraw, who will share with us a little about what we do at Palmetto Electric to keep our employees, members, and communities safe. Also, learn how YOU can keep yourself and your family safe as well.

The Internet allows us to search the web, do homework, watch movies, play video games, and communicate with family and friends. However, sometimes the Internet can be a dangerous place. Learn from Palmetto Electric's Lizz Parker on how we keep our computers safe and how you can stay safe online, too!

The South Carolina Lowcountry is filled with wildlife! Respecting the animals and their habitats will not only keep them safe, but also keep you safe. Let's learn from Lyn Boyles, Executive Director of the Jasper Soil and Water Conservation District, as she gives us a tour of the Blue Heron Nature Center and shares some fun facts about our area's favorite critters.

Emergencies can happen at any time, so we must know what to do! Today, we will learn from Officer Ginn with the Hardeeville Police Department about emergencies and how to call 911 when we need help.
