Incident on Jul 7, 2010: Electric shock & burn - direct contact with overhead line

A three-person power line crew was working from aerial lifts positioned 12.2 met ers above the ground. At the time of the accident, the crewmembers were tying a center-phase overhead power line conductor to a utility pole. Two of the employe es were using tie wires to fasten the conductor to its insulator. The third empl oyee was using his aerial lift to hold the outer conductors of the 7200-volt pow er line away from the pole. One of first two employees, who was not wearing rubb er insulating sleeves, contacted the power line with his elbow, received an elec tric shock, and caused an electrical fault. He sustained second- and third-degre e burns to his upper arms and chest. The electric arc from the fault caused flas h burns to the eyes of the other employee tying in the conductor. The two injure d employees were hospitalized.

Incident on Feb 25, 1999 (fatal): Electric shock - direct contact with overhead line

An employee was transferring an overhead power line from an old pole to a new on e. After completing most of the work, the employee removed his leather protector s and rubber insulating gloves and donned an old pair of leather gloves. He then used a gasoline-powered chain saw to cut the top off the old pole. As he was re energizing the transformer on the new pole, he contacted the power line and was electrocuted. (He had entry and exit wounds on his left and right hands at the i ntersections of his thumbs and fore fingers.)
