"This Guide contains standards, statues and regulations that are necessary to minimize wildland fires that may be caused by the operation and maintenance of electrical power lines and energized electrical equipment used in the delivery of electrical power. These standards are based upon the studies and experiences of fire agencies and power line operations personnel, as well as on federal regulations and the laws of the State of California. These standards, statutes and regulations are to be considered minimum guides. Field conditions may indicate the need for efforts beyond these minimums. ... This Guide was developed as a mutual undertaking by Cal Fire, the Pacific Gas and Electric Company, the Southern California Edison Company, San Diego Gas and Electric and the other electric utilities of California. Its purpose is to provide information and guidance to the personnel of the fire service agencies and electrical operators for minimum uniform application within the areas of their respective jurisdiction and franchise responsibilities. ... This edition of the Guide has been substantially revised not only to reflect changes in laws, regulations, policy and technology, but also to enhance its usefulness as a working field tool."--Foreword.
