Investigation Summary

Investigation Nr: 202552311
Event: 08/18/2010
Electric Shock - Direct Contact with Overhead Line

On August 18, 2010, Employee #1 was working as a "roofman" for a company that provided termite extermination at residential homes. As a "roofman," he placed tents over residential homes and buildings, which were then fumigated for the extermination of pests. At the time of the accident, Employee #1 was covering the corners around a chimney, working in a crouched position. When he stood, his head contacted a 10,000-volt high overhead power line, and he received an electric shock. The power line ran approximately three to four feet above the chimney. Employee #1 sustained first- through third-degree burns, which caused damage to his nervous system. He was hospitalized greater than twenty-four hours. A Serious accident-related citation was issued in addition to other non-accident-related violations.
