Investigation Summary
An electrician left his work area to pull a 3-meter-long ground rod from the ground. He was using an aerial lift as a crane to lift the ground rod. He had attached a piece of Romex cable to the rod. The cable broke, and the aerial lift bucket turned sideways, causing the employee to fall out of it 7.6 meters to the ground. He died of head injuries sustained in the fall.
