Employee Is Electrocuted after Contacting Power Line

On August 18, 2009, Employee #1, a construction worker, and other two crew members were installing a 230-ft television cable line in a residential neighborhood. Employee #1 was working from an aerial lift, which was mounted on a truck. During the course of work, Employee #1's hard hat made contact with an overhead 7,200-V power line. Employee #1 was exposed to an electrical shock and was killed. Neither the aerial lift nor the hard hat was rated for the work on or near the electrical power lines. The lift had a number of stencils advising on hazards associated with overhead power lines.
