Investigation Summary
A maintenance worker was on a fiberglass extension ladder, replacing the end caps of a fluorescent lighting fixture. He was working at a height of about 3 meters. He had assumed that a light switch controlled the fixture, but did not test the circuit to determine if the fixture was energized. Acting on the maintenance worker's instructions, his helper had opened the wrong light switch. The maintenance worker apparently received an electric shock and fell from the ladder. He died of injuries sustained in the fall.
