Scaffolders often work around powerlines too. ⚡ They need spotters as much as anyone in that zone - albeit regulations around clearances are modified slightly.

Looking back on (+)2 decades of Safety Spotting, this was the only job that ever involved a fatality. 😥

Click on my comment below for the back-story.

A scene in Ballarat in Regional Victoria AU with powerlines that have been bridged and isolated to make safe on a temporary basis whilst an Elevating Work Platform (out of view) works nearby. Just under the cross-arm on the power pole hangs a deceased possum that appears to have electrocuted itself on some of the conductors or terminals - whilst the lines were still live.
