Can I landscape around the transformer (or pedestal) in my yard?

Yes, but the Electric Division requires a ten foot clearance in all directions from the enclosure. You may install plantings closer to the enclosure, but the Electric Division reserves the right to cut down or trim plantings in order to gain safe and prompt access to the enclosure. Call the electric division for further information at 330-335-2833. Please remember to contact Ohio Utilities Protection Service before digging at 800-362-2764.
