Investigation Summary
Two communications workers were realigning a telephone cable. As they were stringing a messenger cable for the telephone line between two poles, the messenger cable contacted a 7.2-kilovolt overhead power line suspended from the top of the poles. One of the employees was electrocuted. The other employee received an electric shock and sustained only minor burns. (The second injured employee was not listed on an injury line on the original form.)
