Pruning vegetation around power lines is an extremely hazardous job. Duke Energy discourages you from undertaking any pruning activities close to electrical equipment. If you are concerned about the growth of trees or other vegetation on or near the service lines around your house, we encourage you to contact Duke Energy, and a representative will be glad to assess the situation.
