Investigation Summary

Investigation Nr: 202685897
Event: 12/03/2012
Employee Suffers Cardiac Arrest from Electrical Shock

An incident occurred while Employee #1 and two coworkers were using a truck mounted crane to aid in the repair of the silo grain elevator. While hoisting material, one coworker, the crane operator, was engaged in conversation with the other coworker. While hoisting the material the crane contacted a nearby energized powerline. The crane operator received no injuries, as he was on the crane and not in contact with the ground. Employee #1, however, received an electrical shock that sent him into cardiac arrest. Employee #1 was transported to the hospital and treated. The extent of the Employee #1's injuries were cardiac arrest and minor burns on his hands and feet.
