Investigation Summary
An alarm installer and a trainee were installing a residential security alarm system. The two employees had completed all of the required drilling and were pulling component conductors into the attic. One of the conductors got snagged on a doorway. The installer sent the trainee from the attic to free the conductor. After the trainee left, the installer contacted ductwork for the heating system or the stovepipe. Both were energized by existing faulty wiring in the residence. The installer was electrocuted.
