Investigation Summary
At 1:30 p.m. on June 5, 2019, Employee #1 and Coworkers #1 and #2, employed by a concrete construction company, were preparing to mount a metal light pole to a concrete base. Coworker #1 was operating an aerial lift with boom and basket. The pole was attached by a nylon sling to the lift basket. As the pole was lifted, it came within approximately 18 to 24 inches of a 7,200-volt overhead power line. The pole became energized. Employee #1, who was in contact with the pole, was electrocuted. He was transported to a hospital, where he was pronounced dead.
