TWO weeks before a Polish student was electrocuted on a Blairgowrie fruit farm, warnings were given about the dangers of workers erecting polytunnels in close proximity to overhead power cables.
But that didn’t prevent the death of 26-year-old Gerard Faltynowski, from Swidwyn, almost three years ago.
And at Perth Sheriff Court this week, a Blairgowrie soft fruit firm was fined £9,000 for breaching Health and Safety at Work regulations.
The court was told that Thomas Thomson Ltd., of Bramblebank Works, Haugh Road, failed to create a “safe zone” around an 11,000 volt overhead power line to protect employees who were erecting polytunnels at a strawberry field.
The no-go area should have extended to nine metres on either side of the power line.
Gerard Faltynowski, from Swidwyn, was electrocuted when a metal pole he was carrying touched the high voltage cable on July 28, 2006.

QUICK SUMMARY: This is the 2nd time I’ve bought this pole saw. My first one broke after two years of use, but it was useful enough to me that I was willing to buy it a 2nd time. Read my review to learn what NOT to do. Recommended!
My first Black and Decker pole saw broke when the screwhole threads inside the metal frame (these are the screwholes you use to make the chain taut) somehow got stripped after I tried tightening the screws once. Apparently, you have to be CAREFUL not to overtighten these screws, or else you’ll damage the screwhole threads, and the screws meant for tightening the chain won’t tighten anymore, so your chain becomes too loose to use, so you can’t use it anymore. My lesson learned is your lesson learned!
I also should admit, too, that I pushed this pole saw beyond its intended means. By that, I mean that I was cutting big limbs off my front yard’s black olive tree, the largest of which was probably about 10″ in diameter. Yes, it’s really intended to be used to cut much smaller branches and limbs, but I had to cut big limbs off my tree before hurricane season!
