THE CRAWL SPACE IN WHICH THE EMPLOYEE WAS WORKING WAS ABOUT 18 INCHES HIGH. THE EMPLOYEE HAD ENTERED THE CRAWL SPACE ON HIS BACK AND WAS CRAWLING TO A POINT WHERE HE INTENDED TO INSTALL JACKS. THE EMPLOYEE MOVED ONTO THE BARE SPOT ON THE SERVICE CONDUCTORS AND WAS ELECTROCUTED. THE EMPLOYEE DID NOT KNOW THAT THE CONDUCTORS WERE ENERGIZED.
