Investigation Summary
On July 28, 2003, Employee #1, a roofer with B & L Masonry in Sunnyvale, CA, was working with a foreman on a three-tiered scaffold erected behind a building near high voltage lines. He was cutting pieces of wire and handing them to the foreman. Employee #1 cut a 10 ft long section of wire but got too close to the 39 ft high power line, resulting in an electric arc. He was knocked off the scaffold and fell 24 ft to the ground. Employee #1 suffered electrical burns to his left hand and foot. He was transported to Valley Medical Center in San Jose, CA, where he was hospitalized for three days.
