For more than a decade, the Look Up and Live campaign has played a vital role in reducing incidents involving overhead powerlines.
Its message is simple and powerful — stay alert, plan your lift, and know your surroundings.
At Protective, we fully support that mission. We believe awareness is the first step toward prevention — and that technology can now extend that protection even further.

From Awareness to Engineered Control

Even the most experienced operator can be distracted by weather, noise, or job-site pressure.
Relying on awareness alone leaves a gap that engineered systems can fill.

That’s where GoUpSafely comes in. It doesn’t replace training or vigilance — it reinforces them by automatically detecting live powerlines and alerting the operator before contact occurs.
When awareness and engineering work together, the result is a safer, more resilient work environment.

How GoUpSafely Works

360° Detection: Continuously scans for the electromagnetic field of live conductors around cranes, EWPs, and tippers.
Proximity Alerts: Visual and audible warnings give operators time to stop or adjust.
Engineered Control: The system can integrate with machine interlocks to prevent movement into the danger zone.
Compliance Ready: Designed to meet ISO 13849-1 PL d, aligning with AS 2550.10:2025 and the upcoming EU Machinery Regulation 2027.

These capabilities transform safety from a behavioural reminder into a built-in defence.

Supporting the Industry, Together

Campaigns such as Look Up and Live, industry bodies like CICA, and innovative technologies like GoUpSafely all share the same goal — zero powerline incidents.
By combining education, culture, and engineering, we can make that goal achievable across Australia’s construction and crane sectors.
