If the voltage is "bleeding" into the ground, there is a diminishing effect over distance. For example, at 10 feet away from the crane, its at 10,000 volts. At 15 feet away, its at 9,000 volts. At 20 feet away it's at 8,000 volts, etc. until it finally reaches zero. (Keep in mind it may be non-linear; this is just an example) If he takes too big of a step, on foot could be at say, 9,817 volts and the other foot is at 8,945 volts. The two feet now feel a difference, or voltage potential of 872 volts. So the worker may accidentally provide another dissipation path, up one leg and down the other, just because his body spanned too large of an area while making a big step. I hope this helps,

Ashley Spann The decay of the electric field with distance is exponential; it never reaches zero, but at 30 meters (roughly 100 ft) as suggested in this video, it should be low enough to no longer be lethal. The staged example in this video is also a bit hokey, since the truck has rubber pneumatic tires. Even if the truck is contacting the overhead line and is at the line potential, if there isn't an electric arc from the wheel rims to earth, there probably is little danger in simply walking away from the danger zone. If there were a visible/audible arc or corona, however, I'd shuffle as recommended.

+Ashley Spann ....Ashley, I hope you are hot because you need more brains. You cannot make statements like this because you have no idea what the ground conductivity is, which can vary widely in very short distances. That is, you could go from relatively low conductive rock, say, to a layer of soil or ground water soaked sand, etc. NEVER convince yourself, if you are unlucky to be in this situation, that you are "safe" and THINK about every move you make.
@thelasttimeitried8 жыл бұрын
+Milosz Ostrow As you say, better shuffle as recommended. The video showed the crane drop pneumatic stabilizers on the ground, so the rubber tires are not the only contact with the ground. You never know what might be happening. Water leaking from a radiator, dragging chains, etc. might provide conductive pathways.

I would also say to this crane worker, this, to avoid this disaster... "Now, there is an energized power line here, overhead. You are in no danger of shock or electrocution as you lift the crane away from the power line--but you are in danger of both hazards if that crane swings and either hits the power line, or comes too close to it. The power line is 15,000 volts, so that means you need to keep the crane 20 feet away from the L side or R side or under the line. At least. Do a test run and try to swing it towards the power line and I will give you a "stop" hand signal to "stop" movement when the crane is too close to the line(s). We may have to move the whole crane assembly to a safer distance from the power lines if it is too near to even swing the crane. Being electrocuted is not worth rushing to do crane work when energized electricity is involved. You only have one life and when you have it taken away by electricity--it can never be revived again. OK?"

Note: something unrelated to the crane could happen causing the power line to come down on the truck, such as a vehicle hitting a pole nearby.

Couple of things, i guess. 1. Crane is no longer in contact with the wire 2. Crane supports stand on wooden platforms, wheels are made of rubber. As we know wood is a dielectric as well as rubber. 3. Guy's legs are far enough from eachother for him to get hit by electricity. Majorly, video explains how the guy could be hit, but still for inattentive spectator, or for a person having no basic education, like scool.

This kind occurrence is more common than one would think and affects more than just construction workers. I was once eating my breakfast at a drive-thru, looked across the street and there was a fire truck, of all things, with its ladder extended into some power lines, just outside the fire station. I forget what exactly was burning, but there were sparks and a fire. Several other trucks arrived on the scene from the other stations in town, sirens blaring. Turns out it was a training exercise gone awry.

That slow shuffling step is used all the time by Pacific Power line crew workers. The theory is that muscle memory will save your life if an energized conductor ever contacts the ground where you are currently doing your " shuffle work ". It has been proven that the expense of new shoes needed more often will be more than offset by the daily overtime pay you will receive to complete your daily work.

We were taught the shuffle at school when I was learning to become an electrician.

The voltage difference can be greater the more distance between your feet or any part of you touching the ground.You keep your shoes touching, minimizing voltage potential, as you shuffle away from the electrical source. Hopping on one foot would be ideal. But if you fall, your body can become a nice conductor of ground currents.

I really wish that they would expand analyses to workplace accidents abroad. There is a video circling around of a container tank explosion in Chinese factory. A worker was cleaning or treating a large tank through an 18"x18" cylindrical opening, and he was blasted to smithereens. My immediate thought: what would WorkSafeBC say about this?! Obviously, he sparked the gases and the opening acted as a bore. The poor man was obliterated completely, his shirt, shoes, and tiny body parts just rained down and onto the piping. China can afford to lose workers, but Canada needs to keep its investments in people from getting recycled. Great job as always, I really respect and appreciate your work.

I lived in a house that had major issues at the transformer (open neutral on the primary loop), and an electrician measured hundreds of volts between the grounding rod and the soil a few feet away from it. Depending on how wet the soil was the plumbing might only tingle or metal faucets would make you latch on when turning them. Eventually the power company found the fault while doing unrelated work, and a look at the number of tickets they closed as "in home wiring" led to a substantial preemptive settlement offer from them.

10 meters is roughly 33 feet, but 35 feet would be the best bet. But remember the exact voltage on the line during an electrical contact. If that contact were on a 400,000 volt line, the higher voltage means a larger energizing radius (much larger) and even more danger of touch potential/step potential electrocutions. In this case, to avoid shock or death, you would need to bunny hop or shuffle 3 times the 10 meter distance - so 30 meters, or about 100 feet. But better than 100 feet - 125 feet - would be better. Don't separate your feet until you pass that distance!
