Classifying Electrical Injuries


OSHA recognizes the four main types of electrical
injuries as:
• Electrical shock (touching “live” line-to-line or
line-to ground conductors) (ground-fault circuit
interrupters )
• Electrocution (death due to severe electrical
shock)
• Burns (from an arc flash)
• Falls (an electrical shock might cause you to
lose your balance, pull back, jump, or fall off a
ladder)
