What happens here

Once the utility has confirmed the power is off and the scene is safe for visual inspection, cautiously observe the area where the tree branch fell. Locate the overhead electrical service line, which is typically a thick, insulated cable running from a utility pole to your house. Note that the line is now detached and lying on the ground, possibly covered by snow or debris, as shown in the video.

Goal: Visually confirm the location of the disconnected overhead service line.
