Two employees were using a manlift to paint the bridge approximately 30 feet above the ground with an identified, energized, electrical power line running parallel to the bridge containing 12,000 volts of electricity. Either the manlift basket made contact with the electrical power line or the power line arched and made contact with the manlift basket resulting in injury to one of the employees. The employee suffered first and third degree electrical burns to his right arm, stomach and back.
