Altec Customer Testimonial – Bill Mueller, Baltimore Gas & Electric

Bill Mueller, Fleet Supervisor at Baltimore Gas & Electric, Maryland’s largest natural gas and electric utility, appreciates Altec Sentry’s commitment to supporting customers in safety and training efforts.

“Training is offered both online and in-person for our technicians and keeps us up-to-date with all the new technology. Altec always steps up to the plate, and either does what we need them to do or comes up with better ideas to help us with any of our safety needs,” Mueller said.

Keeping crews safe on the job is a top priority for Altec. The Altec Sentry program was created to train operators of Altec equipment on safety practices for the electric utility, telecommunications, and contractor industries. This program uses the highest safety standards to prevent on-the-job injuries and fatalities.

BGE’s fleet consists of Altec aerial devices, light-duty, and compressor trucks. Bill says that during his 40-year tenure with BG&E, Altec has been a reliable partner in keeping up with constantly changing technology needs that support safe work practices.

“Altec’s engineering unit is outstanding, and they help us out with innovation, whether for new safety idea or product feature services. The technology is advancing very quickly, especially with the safety equipment, and Altec is keeping up with that as they integrate everything into their truck bodies,” Mueller said.

Altec Sentry offers training designed to help employers train and certify equipment operators on the safe and proper operation of aerial devices (insulating, non-insulating and tree care), digger derricks, chippers, and cranes.
