The morning after the storm, the repairman was perched on a ladder trying to repair a high-voltage power line. As he was removing the cover of the transformer box, the ladder suddenly slipped on the wet ground, even though it had been properly fixed into position. The repairman struggled to maintain his balance and, luckily, the ladder came to rest against the transformer box.

As the pedestrian was ascending the ladder, his foot slipped, and he fell to the ground.

If the pedestrian asserts a claim against the electrical company for his injuries, he will most likely
