Investigation Summary
A PAINTER WAS LEANING OVER THE ROOF OF A THREE-STORY BUILDING, PAINTING AN EXTERIOR WALL WITH A ROLLER ATTACHED TO AN 8- TO 10-FOOT ALUMINUM POLE. WHEN HE BROUGHT THE POLE UP TO FILL THE ROLLER WITH PAINT, THE POLE CONTACTED AN 8000-VOLT OVERHEAD POWER LINE THAT WAS ABOUT 5 FEET FROM THE BUILDING. THE ELECTRIC SHOCK HE RECEIVED CAUSED HIM TO FALL OVER THE 18- TO 20-INCH-HIGH PARAPET. HE LANDED HEAD FIRST ON THE CONCRETE SIDEWALK. THE EMPLOYEE DIED EITHER FROM ELECTROCUTION OR FROM INJURIES SUSTAINED IN THE FALL.
