Summary
The Utility Worksite Automated External Defibrillator Safety Act mandates that every utility or electrical worksite in Pennsylvania have a functional automated external defibrillator (AED) on‑site, with basic CPR/AED training for lineworkers and crew leaders. It also establishes maintenance, inspection, notice, and Good Samaritan immunity requirements, and sets civil penalties for non‑compliance. The goal is to improve survival chances for lineworkers who suffer sudden cardiac arrest while working on the electric grid.
