Analysis of Accidents Caused By Induced Current and Voltage on Transmission Lines and Substations Between 1985–2021
This work analyzes data from accidents due to ac induction in transmission lines and substations in the USA between 1985 and 2021. The data is from the US Bureau of Labor Statistics and encompasses 81 accidents in Transmission and Distribution lines and substations. As a result, 93 people were involved in the accidents and 60 are deaths. This paper offers an explanation to the why, when, and how the accidents happened. Direction is given to improve electric utility training programs. Findings and graphs may be used in training material to explain concepts of ac induction safety. It also provides guidance for field safety observation practices. As a result of this study, it was determined that injuries and fatalities due to ac induction hazards are preventable. Finally, the intent of this paper is to motivate future work in further analysis of ac induction accidents. It also calls for stricter regulations that can help reduce the number of accidents over time.
