Managing network safety settings to be more sensitive in #bushfire season We adjust our network settings to be in line with in-time fire danger ratings in higher risk areas. That way we can better detect and isolate faults and their potential impact on the network. This approach is part of our commitment to community safety and making sure we’re prepared for what extreme weather may bring.

Bushfire safety isn’t seasonal, it’s essential. Ahead of summer, we’re inspecting more than 152,000 poles in high and extreme fire risk areas, boosting vegetation management, siliconing insulators using helicopters plus replacing close to 2,600 insulators and much more. It’s all part of reducing risk and keeping WA communities safe. Read the full story: https://bit.ly/48l0xVz | Western Power

These ratings help the community know when to put their bushfire survival plan into action. These ratings are: Low–Moderate, High, Very High, Severe, Extreme and Catastrophic (or Code Red in Victoria). The higher the rating, the more dangerous the conditions are likely to be, and at higher ratings any fire that starts will likely be fa
