Investigation Summary
On June 20, 2002, Employee #1 was installing siding on a residential property. He was working from a ladder that was set adjacent to an incoming 150-amp electrical service conductor when he accidentally contacted the line. A coworker tried to get him off the line by shaking the ladder. This caused Employee #1 to fall approximately 20 ft onto a concrete driveway. He died of head injuries sustained in the fall.
