Investigation Summary
On June 16, 2006, Employee #1 was using an aluminum bull float at the site of a concrete pour. He had carried the float to a new position and was lifting the handle well above his head when it contacted an approximately 7,620-volt overhead power line. Employee #1 was electrocuted. The power lines passed over only part of the work area and were encountered only at the end of the pour. Initial reports indicated that Employee #1's brother, a coworker, received an electric shock when he knocked his brother away from the energized handle and to the ground.
