Version FRTree Trimming Guidelines for TELUS Cable Areas
Information about cables near power lines and safety guidelines for tree trimming. Property Owner Responsibilities Any trees located on private property are the sole responsibility of the homeowner, and we recommend reaching out to a professional arborist if necessary to handle any tree branch trimming near TELUS cables. For safety reasons, we advise to never trim near power lines. Note: Many TELUS cable strands are attached to portions of power-provided poles. If this is the case, please contact your power company to arrange for a tree-trimmer to be dispatched as electricity is involved. How to Identify Pole Ownership Check Google Maps: Switch to street view Drag view upward Look for power equipment You can also contact your city who may have their own trained arborists to deal with power poles. Otherwise, they will advise to contact the power company. When to Contact Each Authority Power Company: Poles with electrical equipment Shared utility poles Power line concerns City Services: Municipal tree management Permit requirements Public safety issues TELUS: Cable-only poles Service disruptions Infrastructure damage Note: Always prioritize safety and professional assessment when dealing with utilities.
