Investigation Summary
An electrical foreman was standing on a ladder, making connections and testing circuits above a false ceiling in a commercial building. As he was testing a 120-volt circuit, his left elbow contacted a fire protective sprinkler conductor that had been installed previously. The employee, who was also touching a metal sprinkler pipe, received an electric shock that caused an involuntary muscular reaction. As a result, the employee knocked the ladder out from under him and fell about 8 feet to the concrete floor. He sustained a cracked pelvis and was hospitalized for his injury.
