Dial Before You Dig

Digging a hole?

Beneath the surface could lie a cable ready to be caught by the next sweep of your excavator bucket or simply the next swing of your pickaxe.

Piercing that cable could cause you injury and put the whole neighbourhood's power supply out of action for the next hour, two hours, twelve hours! Wouldn't it be simpler to call Guernsey Electricity and save yourself a lot of time, bother and money.
