An insulated bucket truck intercom facilitates safe/reliable bucket-to-cab and bucket-to-ground communications during truck operations, while in close proximity to high voltage power sources/lines. A truck-powered cab transceiver and battery-powered bucket transceiver are selectively interconnected by fiber optic cable to maintain high voltage electrical isolation of at least 10 KV/foot. A hands-free bucket transceiver liberates bucket workers from depressing a PTT button to communicate during repair operations. A PTT cab transceiver prevents stray sounds from distracting bucket workers. Bucket elevation through extension of the telescoping boom, with fiber optic cable secured thereto, is accommodated by a self-storing fiber optic reel assembly positioned at each section. Play in the cable and a spring-loaded pulley member accommodates boom articulation. A cab transceiver radio interface permits interference-free communication between the bucket transceiver and/or the cab transceiver, with a remote walkie-talkie up to 10 miles distant. A sensor warns of imminent truck tipping from boom overreaching.
