Investigation Summary

Investigation Nr: 14445399
Event: 07/17/1984
ELECTRIC SHOCK - CONTACT WITH ACCIDENTALLY REENERGIZED LINE

AN EMPLOYEE (EMPLOYEE #1) WAS COILING UP WIRE ON A FARM. THE LINE WAS DEENERGIZED AT THE TIME. THE GENERAL FOREMAN AT A REMOTE SITE TOLD A SECOND EMPLOYEE TO PUT THE JUMPER FROM THE NEW LINE TO THE TAP. WHEN THIS WAS DONE, IT REENERGIZED THE OLD LINE BECAUSE A JUMPER WAS STILL ON THE OLD LINE. THE FOREMAN DID NOT SEE THAT THE JUMPER WAS STILL CONNECTED TO THE OLD LINE; BUT WHEN HE SAW THE FLASH, HE REALIZED WHAT HAD HAPPENED. HE JUMPED INTO HIS PICKUP, DROVE TO WHERE HE LAST SAW EMPLOYEE #1, AND SAW A THIRD EMPLOYEE GIVING CPR TO EMPLOYEE #1. EMPLOYEE #1 WAS ELECTROCUTED.
