Before you dig remember the following:
· Call ESB networks at 1800 372 757 for underground electricity cable maps.
· All cables should be traced using a cable locator (CAT) operated by a competent person – never rely solely on the cable maps.

· Always mark all cable positions clearly.
· Always assume additional cables may be present.
· Follow a safe system of work for digging. Observe Safe Digging Practices – including hand digging close to buried cables.
