Nationally Recognised Vocational Education and Training (VET) Overhead powerline contact is one of the largest single causes of fatalities associated with mobile plant and equipment. Contact with overhead powerlines is a serious risk because any voltage that causes sufficient current to pass through the heart is potentially injurious or even fatal.
