The following are common causes of electrocution:

• Lacking ground-fault protection
• Contact with power lines
• Incorrect grounding of electrical equipment

These accidents can result in severe personal injuries such as burns, organ damage, impaired nerve function, permanent organ damage, chronic pain, and more. In the worst cases, these accidents can result in death.
