RIP ERIC...Gone way to soon!
The young mans name was ERIC GIVENS... Rest in peace....In the arms of an angel.....
Who ever owns that electric line is in some mighty hot water. 600 volts or less must be 24" deep. 50,000 volts or less is required to be 30" deep. Cant understand how energized cable was that accessable t a mower.
