Investigation Summary
A power line worker for an electric utility was working from an aerial lift, attaching phase conductors to lightning arrestors. The employee was not wearing electrical protective equipment. He installed the north phase conductors and then elevated the "non-conductive" aerial lift platform. As he was raising the platform, he contacted two of the phase conductors of the overhead power line and was electrocuted.
