Safety, Electricity and YOU!

Electricity is a form of energy that is an essential part of our lives. Teaching the community about the power of electricity and how to stay safe around it is a top priority at Talquin. We would like to offer your students the opportunity to see an exciting and educational presentation on the Power of Electricity. With the help of the “Power Town” display table (shown above), we are able to show students the hazards of electrical lines and how to stay safe around them. When the display table is energized it has 10,000 volts of electricity flowing through the miniature power lines giving it the ability to actually spark when objects touch it. This realistic demonstration gives students a visual lesson in the importance of avoiding contact with electricity. Along with electrical safety, this 45 minute presentation will also teach students about where electricity comes from and how they can help conserve energy. You don't want to miss out on this opportunity to be “enLIGHTened”! Schedule your presentation today! Parents and Educators, for additional educational resources, visit Kids Korner where you will find lesson plans, interactive games and great ways to learn more about electricity and efficiency. Email Sara Szeliga or call (850) 545-9892 to schedule your organization's presentation.
