Narrative
An employee was working on a non-energized power pole that had new wire strung on it the previous day. While he was removing a traveler that was in his way, he came into contact with the adjacent 7,200-volt live line. He was shocked, briefly losing consciousness and suffering entry and exit burns to the right thumb, right middle finger, left thumb, and left index finger. He was hospitalized, requiring skin grafts.
