The deterioration and decay of our nation’s infrastructure is possibly the most critical issue in today’s growing urban landscape. In recent years, we have seen the tragic results of this decay unfold in the form of collapsing bridges and dams, power blackouts, and Contact Voltage electrocution deaths. Urban decay is not isolated to one region or city and the potential for public shock exists on every electric distribution system.



Some state regulators have taken action, addressed the issues and mandated comprehensive stray voltage detection programs. The result of these programs have been both substantial and measurable. Others sit idle while the rate-paying public is surrounded by invisible hazards. Some regulators have even enforced inadequate samplings using inappropriate forms of testing which create a false sense of security.

For years, Power Survey Company has worked side by side with state regulators to enhance public safety and utility maintenance programs. For regulators the public always comes first, and no issue takes precedence to public safety. Our staff includes former regulatory commissioners who understand the impediments regulators face in the adoption or mandating of new policies. We also understand the sensitivity of such critical issues and ensure confidentiality every step of the way. Power Survey Company maintains an active presence in NARUC and in the regulatory community. We have conducted surveys in most US cities and are willing to share city/state specific data on demand. Please contact us today for more information.
