DANGER Underground Electric Line Sign – Electrocution Hazard – Call 811 Before You Dig – 8x12 Rust-Resistant Aluminum Utility Safety Sign, Outdoor/Indoor – by CGAP Safety

One bad scoop can turn a routine dig into a fatal incident.

The CGAP Safety “Danger – Underground Electric Line – Electrocution Hazard – Call 811 Before You Dig” sign is a high-visibility warning marker for areas where buried electrical conductors may be present. It’s built for the places people actually dig: fence lines, easements, yards, job sites, utility corridors, and facility grounds where excavation, post setting, trenching, and boring happen every day.

The message does two jobs at once. First, it communicates the real outcome: electrocution. Second, it directs the correct preventive action: Call 811 before you dig. That combination matters because most utility strikes are not malicious, they’re rushed decisions made by someone who “just needs one hole.” This sign is designed to interrupt that moment and force the correct workflow before metal meets energized infrastructure.

This 8 x 12 inch sign is manufactured from rust-resistant aluminum for long-term outdoor deployment. It holds up in sun, rain, and high-traffic environments better than thin plastic markers, laminated paper, or temporary stakes that fade, crack, or disappear right when they’re needed most. The classic red DANGER header and bold block lettering remain readable at a distance, which is exactly what you want when equipment is moving and people are scanning fast.

Use this sign as part of your damage-prevention program to reduce utility strikes, prevent outages, and support safer excavation practices around underground electrical lines. Place it at known risk areas, near access points, and along routes where contractors, homeowners, or maintenance crews are most likely to dig.

CGAP Safety is an American safety manufacturer focused on clear, durable signage that helps crews and property owners see the hazard, follow the process, and close the gap between “I thought it was fine” and “now we have a crisis.”

Important: This sign is a warning communication tool and does not replace required training, PPE, safe work practices, or utility locating procedures. Always follow applicable standards, 811 locate requirements, and site policies before digging.
