BETTER PROTECTION

Crews can talk easily without removing the headsets and without removing critical hearing protection.

CASE STUDY: NEBRASKA UTILITY IMPROVES SAFETY AND TEAMWORK WITH SONETICS

CUSTOMER: Southern Power District, Grand Island, Nebraska

PROBLEM: Loud equipment and challenging weather made it nearly impossible for utility crews to hear each other, resulting in frequent shut downs and huddles.

SOLUTION: Sonetics Wireless Headsets keep SPD crews connected and protected from loud noise. Now they can continue storm restoration work and alert each other about potential hazards as they happen.

Portrait of Todd Bailey, Safety Director, Southern Power District.

“Prior to the headsets, there was a lot of extra time and effort involved with communicating. And still we had misunderstandings. Now that we have Sonetics, the only thing stopping us is not talking to each other.”

— Todd Bailey, Safety Director, Southern Power District
