Investigation Summary
An employee was installing vinyl siding on a single-story shed. The shed was located near a driveway with a grassy area between. A 7200-volt overhead power line was located directly above the grassy area. The employee was moving a 6.1-meter aluminum extension ladder into position to reach the top of the shed. As he was positioning the ladder, it contacted the power line, electrocuting the employee.
