Investigation Summary
A power line worker was repairing a storm-damaged insulator on the B-phase conductor of a 7200-volt overhead power line. He was working from an aerial lift mounted on an International Navistar electric line truck. He deenergized the line before making the repair. However, the line was apparently still energized by backfeed. The employee, who was not required to wear electrical protective equipment for this job, was electrocuted when he contacted the energized conductor.
