Causes of Electrocution

There are three types of electrocution injuries:

• Lightning injury: These injuries are the second most common cause of storm-related death in the US!
• High-voltage injury: These injuries result from high strength electricity flows that range from 100 to 500 volts. This includes household electricity, large appliances, or a utility company’s power line.
• Low-voltage injury: These injuries result from electricity flows that range from 110-220 volts.

True electrical injuries have an entrance and an exit wound that indicate the person became part of the electrical circuit.

Symptoms of Electric Shock

• Loss of consciousness
• Muscle spasms
