Electrical Hazards

Sometimes you can be as careful as you could be, but it is the negligence of others that can cause harm.

That is what happened to an electrician in Madison County, who claims that the power system operator failed to follow the proper sequence for shutting down a circuit breaker, and also for failing to provide information or advice that it was going to do just that.

The result? The circuit breaker exploded, and an electrician suffered severe injury, including disfigurement and disability.

A case for negligence is now pending against the power system operator.
