High Voltage Shock & Arc Cable blown away when wire cutters make contact with conductor

High Voltage Shock Effects Insulated cutters, but inappropriate tool to use for high voltage. Only High Voltage Hotsticks, with Voltage-rated Gloves can be used for this work. Qualified Electrical Workers only. Result: Electrocution.

High Voltage Shock Physical Effects of Electrocution

High Voltage Shock Entry point of High Voltage

High Voltage Shock Effects ~ Arcing to Grounded Conduits (2)

High Voltage Shock Arcing Effects ~ Body to Grounded Conduits (2)

High Voltage Shock Arcing Effects ~ Body to Grounded Conduit

High Voltage Shock Blowout Effects Exit points (4) Thru the right thumb, left elbow, abdomen, and pelvic area; where High Voltage Arc blows out… completing the circuit to ground.
