Investigation Summary

Investigation Nr: 201401114

Event: 10/08/1997

Employee installing cable causes property damage

Employee #1 was installing cable strand wire on a pole when he noticed that the existing strand wire that ran north along the road went around the pole and formed a 90 degree angle. He used a come-along to pull the existing cable because he saw it was only 14 to 15 in. from a 120 V secondary power line. Employee #1 cranked the come-along until he heard a spanking sound. The cable strand had struck the power line, resulting in property damage. No information was provided on employee injuries.
