While work injuries account for the majority of reported serious injuries or deaths caused by electrical accidents each year, electric shock injuries are common in households, businesses, hospitals and even after an accident.

While some electrical injuries do occur accidentally, there are some situations in which electrical shock injuries are caused by negligence, including:
WHO IS LIABLE FOR ELECTRIC SHOCK INJURIES?
- A victim’s employer could be found negligent
- A repairman or subcontractor could be found at fault for poor repairs in a home, business, or public place
- The power company itself could be found negligent for failing to properly fix damaged power lines
- Manufacturers of products, and even property owners could be found negligent for failing to uphold safety measures
WHAT ARE COMMON INJURIES OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK?
Electrical injuries are severe, causing a variety of other injuries as a result.
- Muscle and tissue damage
- External and internal burns
- Heart attack

Along with the above direct injuries that could occur from electrical currents, secondary injuries, or injuries that occur in reaction to the electrical shock, can also be severe.
