Investigation Summary
A power line worker who was working on the evening shift for Southern California Edison was assigned to troubleshoot a power disruption at a new housing tract. The employee opened a transformer cabinet, intending to work on the deenergized portion of the equipment. He turned to move a portable light closer to where he was working. He contacted an energized part with his gloved hand and received an electric shock. (The original form did not state what type of gloves he was wearing.) The employee had his right index finger amputated and was hospitalized for his injuries.
