Which of the following is NOT a method of injury associated with electricity?

The correct response identifies exposure to high temperature as not being a direct method of injury associated with electricity. When we discuss injuries related to electrical incidents, they typically stem from electrical shock, burns, or arc flash events.

Providing a path from a phase to ground involves a conductive connection that can result in electric currents flowing where they shouldn't, leading to shock or electrocution. Similarly, providing a path in series refers to the way electrical circuits function, and a misconfiguration can expose individuals to dangerous levels of current, leading to injury.

Thermal injury from an arc or flash is directly related to electrical phenomena. Arc flashes can generate immense heat and cause severe burns or injuries due to the explosive release of energy.

In contrast, while exposure to high temperatures can indeed cause injuries, it is not a direct result of electrical principles or incidents but rather could occur in other contexts, such as exposure to hot surfaces or flames. Thus, the focus on electrical injury methods excludes general thermal exposure, making exposure to high temperature the correct answer as the one that does not specifically associate with injury methods tied to electricity itself.
