Investigation Summary
A power line worker was in a Hi-Ranger aerial lift, clipping in a new overhead power line. He had not covered an existing 7200-volt overhead power line nor was he wearing rubber insulating gloves. The uninsulated section of the boom contacted the energized line while the employee was touching the new, grounded line. The employee was electrocuted when he reached behind his back and contacted the boom or controls.
