Investigation Summary
A power line crew for an electric utility was repairing a fire-damaged substation. The power lines in the substation were deenergized. A substation operator, working alone at the time, was installing protective tags. He was later found dead at the base of a 5-foot by 7-foot by 8-foot scaffold supporting 13.2-kilovolt cables. The medical examiner listed the cause of death as low-voltage electrocution. (The cause of the electrocution was not reported.)
