BlackPantherxXx:the electric is your house has a low voltage to instantly shock a full grown man Dead unless it is triggered by the water factor which is a good conductor of electricity 1 Like |

Power was restored? By whom? That’s some seriously flawed communication right there |

No occupational hazard protection plans and policies in naija. You touch high tension wires with bare hands, no protective gears with the hope power won't be restored. His family should sue BEDC for his death over lack of provision of protective wears and tools. |

Another possible cause of his electrocution is the use of aluminum ladder instead of a wooden or fibreglass ladder as seen in the picture. Aluminum is a good conductor of electricity. I can also assure you that the base of that ladder is not insulated thereby exposing the user to direct contact with the ground which act as neutral. |

micflo28:Protective wears and tools is the least of the worries here Hazards and saferty policies do exist but most prefer to adopt the Naija approach the “God will protect me policy” “ the village people protection policy” and the “ I don’t know and I never want to know policy” How many employers actually care about Health and Safety and how many employees make an effort to know? This man’s death is a travesty but disregard for human life is rife in this country. |

maxiuc: Point of correction. The voltage of electricity in your house is the same as the one on the pole. Both can kill anybody instantly. The difference between them is the size of cable through which they are traveling. Don't underestimate or over familiarize yourself with the one in house. Never make that mistake. |

No communication at all, too bad. |

MissRaine69:If you want to advise some people about safety first they will tell you that they have been doing it since before you were born. I once saw a guy climbing mask with nothing to protect him because to him he's a Pro. |

Godyke:My friend Shutup voltage on the pole is 415 which is stepped down to just 220v for indoors |

[quote author=swaggprofessor post=66167230]My friend Shutup voltage on the pole is 415 which is stepped down to just 220v for indoors[/quote Keep quiet and stop disgracing yourself here. The pole we are talking about here is the one that carries power to every home and it is usually 220-230 volts and it is known know as low voltage line. It gets its supply from transformer. If 415 volts is sent into your apartment how do you step it down. Maybe your China made stabilzer I think. Instead of asking question to learn you are here messing your self. |

KillerBeauty:Tell me about it. One colleague caused an infection everytime he did sutures on a patient so rather than argue with him because like you mentioned “ I was doing this before you were born” is the regular defence so to avoid issues it was easier to just redo the sutures without telling him. |

Johnnyessence: The simple yet most effective safety control measure to prevent this incident is a LOCK OUT TAG OUT procedure, in addition to a permit to work system. |

That is unprofessional if he use bare hands on cables without insulated hand gloves not a good idea @ all. Maybe he use the insulated hand gloves but had body contact with a naked cable on the pole when power was restored. God knows what really happened. RIP |

nairaman66:My dear, don't say what you don't know its technicality. If actually it was an official assignment and the guy knew safety aspect of the assignment, he would not have died. Was he with his PPE kit? Another option, he would have deloaded the feeder pillar's unit of the transformer that powered the LT of the network that he climbed. Whether Nepa restored light or took the light, nothing would have happened to him. |
