PARIS – EnerStar Electric Cooperative Apprentice Lineman

Illinois Electric Cooperatives (AIEC) as part of an overall
lineman safety/training program. Roger Larkin, manager of
lineworker and apprentice development for the AIEC, says,
“The linemen first learned the proper use of protective
apparel. They learned the proper and safe methods for
installation of crossarms, insulators, lighting arrestors
and transformers. They also learned how to perform pole and
bucket truck rescues.”
