T-5000 Telelect Articulated Aerial Lift Device

The purpose of this site is to provide the general public with information concerning the ongoing incidents of serious injuries and deaths surrounding the use of aerial lift devices manufactured for use in and about high voltage electrical lines.  It is hoped that this information will promote an understanding of the issues and problems associated with the design of various aerial lift devices and how those designs can be improved to dramatically decrease catastrophic injuries and death associated with their use.  The information contained in this summary is primarily derived through research conducted as a part of numerous product liability cases that the firm of Cochran, Cherry, Givens & Smith has been involved in since the late 1980's.
