Types of electrical accidents include, but are not limited to:
- Power plant construction accidents
- Accidents to journeymen and electricians
- Construction accidents
- Oilfield instrumentation
- 480 3 phase oilfield installations
- High voltage switches and lines
- PG&E installations
- Crane contacts with high voltage
- Sagging power lines violating General Order 95
- Uninsulated oilfield transmission lines
- Frayed or damaged wiring
- Unguarded or unfenced power installations
When you are hurt on the job, you are entitled to Workers' compensation benefits. Please refer to our Workers' Compensation area of practice for further information on Workers' compensation.
In addition, if your injury occurred as a result of the negligence or fault of someone other than your employer, you have a claim against the at-fault party.
