The high voltage electrical burn is a rare but very serious incident involving the vital and functional prognosis. It generally occurs in young active subjects and in professional environments, especially in the context of work accidents. Tissue damage is immediately disastrous and requires multidisciplinary management. The recourse to amputation or bilateral disarticulation leads to a serious disability with a heavy socio-professional and psychological repercussion, hence the interest of prevention and awareness. We report the case of a 35 years old patient who suffered a high voltage electrification of both upper limbs during a false manipulation of high voltage cables.
