Safety
At CVPS, safety comes first for our customers and employees.
Electricity is a wonderful convenience that most of us take for granted.
It lights us up all day long, keeps us cool in the summer and warm in the winter.
It allows us to run our household appliances, tools and toys.
But wherever electricity is used, there is always the risk of electrical shock
or even a fire. Electricity is a powerful force, but following some simple
guidelines will help you and our employees avoid unnecessary electrical accidents.
