Investigation Summary
A work crew was installing a 6.4-meter-long streetlighting pole onto a 610-millimeter-high concrete base. A 72-kilovolt overhead power line was located over the base, 8.8 meters above the ground. A crane operator used his crane to elevate the pole toward the concrete base. As the pole contacted the anchor bolts on the base, the load line on the crane contacted the power line, electrocuting an apprentice electrician on the crew.
