Investigation Summary
An elevator mechanic was troubleshooting an elevator circuit. He deenergized the main circuit and then squeezed himself through the 9.25-inch-wide space between a brick wall and an elevator controller. He jumpered energized circuit behind the controller, apparently reenergizing the circuit that he had deenergized. He contacted 480-volt parts on the controller as he squeezed back out through the tight space and was electrocuted.
