⚡ Arcadia Electric Utility Hosts Hands-On Training for Regional Lineworkers! ⚡
We are proud to share that Arcadia Electric Utility recently partnered with Municipal Electric Utilities of Wisconsin (MEUW) to host a hands-on mutual aid training exercise right here in Arcadia!
As a 25-time recipient of MEUW’s Safety Achievement Award, our utility was excited to bring local crews from Westby, Trempealeau, Whitehall, Bangor, and Arcadia together for real-world storm damage scenarios—testing traditional line-work techniques and trying out new technology like the Field Maps app to improve response times during emergencies.
"I was very happy with how the training went and was very impressed with the sharing of institutional knowledge by seasoned employees along with the demonstrations."
— Tim Putz, Arcadia Electric Utility Superintendent
Thank you to MEUW, our Utility Commission, our dedicated crew, and the visiting utilities for prioritizing safety, collaboration, and continuous learning to keep our community’s power reliable and safe! 💡
