PROGRAMS & PRESENTATIONS

Intercounty Electric Cooperative has a comprehensive safety demonstration program suitable for all ages and organizations, available within our service territory.  Educating our members about how to use electricity safely and wisely is important to us.  We teach you how to prevent electrical accidents in the home and about the dangers of power lines.  We want you and your family to learn to be safe around electricity.  If you would like more information or to schedule a demonstration for your group contact our office at 866-621-3679.
