Investigation Summary
SOME EMPLOYEES WERE LIFTING AN 18-FOOT LENGTH OF METAL RAIN GUTTER TO AN EMPLOYEE ON A METAL ROOF. THE ROOF, WHICH WAS 25 FEET OFF THE GROUND, WAS 6 FEET, 3 INCHES FROM A 13.2-KILOVOLT OVERHEAD POWER LINE. EITHER THE EMPLOYEE ON THE ROOF SWUNG THE GUTTER INTO THE OVERHEAD LINE, OR THE WIND BLEW THE GUTTER INTO THE LINE. AS A RESULT OF THE POWER LINE CONTACT, THE EMPLOYEE RECEIVED ELECTRIC SHOCK, WHICH CAUSED HIM TO LOSE CONSCIOUSNESS. HE WAS TRANSPORTED TO THE HOSPITAL, WHERE HE DIED 6 DAYS LATER.
