Investigation Summary
At 10:10 a.m. on March 4, 2019, Employee #1 and coworkers, employed by an electrical contractor, were removing a metal streetlight pole. As a crane lifted the pole off its bolts in the foundation plate, Employee #1 used his hands to guide and stabilize the pole. During this lifting process, the metal pole rotated and came close - approximately 6 feet - to a 12.5-kilovolt distribution line. An electric arc flash occurred. The metal pole became energized, and the electric current, on its path to ground, crossed through the body of Employee #1. Emergency services transported Employee #1 to the hospital, where he was admitted and treated for electric shock and burns.
