Investigation Summary
An employee was working from a 1.8-meter fiberglass ladder, making final connections for some 0.6-meter by 1.2-meter overhead fluorescent lighting fixtures that were located at ceiling level about 2.8 meters from the concrete floor. The lighting circuit apparently became energized, and the employee was electrocuted. (He also fell from the ladder.) The employee was taken to a hospital, where he was pronounced dead.
