ELECTRICAL FAULT IN UNDERGROUND POWER LINE

An employee was using a wood handled pick on very dry ground. An electric utility had marked the location of an underground power line in the work area. Unfortunately, they had mismarked the location of the 13.8-kilovolt, three-phase power line by 70 inches. When the employee reached a depth of 30 inches, the pick struck the power line and caused an electrical fault. A power outage resulted from the fault; however, the employee was not injured.
