Investigation Summary
On May 1, 2002, Employee #1, a supervisor for a telecommunication installation contractor, was working from a Telsta T-40C aerial device mounted on a Ford F-800 truck. He was elevated to a height of approximately 27 ft, installing fiber-optic communication cable from pole to pole. The truck was being slowly driven between poles by a coworker, and Employee #1 was operating the aerial device. He was positioning the aerial lift when it contacted an energized 12-kilovolt power line. Employee #1 received an electric shock and suffered injuries that resulted in the subsequent amputation of an arm and shoulder.
