Investigation Summary
On September 17, 2001, Employee #1 was operating a concrete pump boom truck at a construction site. He was using the remote control box to reposition the boom when it contacted an energized 7.5-kilovolt, three-phase, Delta power line. Employee #1 suffered an electrical shock. He was treated at the scene before being transported to a local hospital, where he was admitted overnight for observation. Employee #1 was released the next day and returned to work on September 19, 2001. The power lines also left burn marks on the boom. They had not been protected or deenergized prior to the accident. The power lines were subsequently relocated.
