A case of suicide using technical electricity is presented. The fact of electrical injury is confirmed by the typical macroscopic and microscopic picture of an electric mark. The location of the conductors on the body indicated the victim's knowledge of the effect of electric current on the human body, the ways of its propagation through the body through the vital organs, preparation and determination in the implementation of suicidal intentions. The interest of this case lies in the fact that electrical injury as a method of suicide is extremely rare in expert practice.
