Principal of Operation – High Voltage Proximity Alarm by SIGALARM Product Demo

SIGALARM is a proximity warning device designed to alert the operators of masts, cranes and other boomed vehicles to the danger of contact with a live power line, the result of which could easily cause injury, death or damage to equipment.

Scottish and Southern Energy (SSE) report that approximately 5 people die in the UK each year due to accidental contact with overhead power lines. It is a tremendous cost to firms with loss of production and damage to vehicles, never mind the cost of a life.

We, at South Midlands Communication (SMC), feel that with modern technology in Proximity Warning Devices these are unnecessary tragedies and costs.

SIGALARMS have been extremely successful in:

• Preventing incidents
• Reducing insurance premiums
• Protecting masts, cranes and other boomed vehicles and
• Most importantly people’s lives

For best practice Health and Safety SMC advise that all masts, cranes and other boomed vehicles are installed with a proximity warning device, SIGALARM, when conducting any work near overhead power lines.

We are in the business of saving lives!
