Investigation Summary
AN EMPLOYEE WAS ASSIGNED TO DISASSEMBLE GRAIN ROLL BOXES THAT WERE NO LONGER BEING USED BY HIS EMPLOYER. THE BOX HE WAS DISASSEMBLING WAS FRAMED IN ANGLE IRON, AND THE BOX WEIGHED ABOUT 400 POUNDS. THE EMPLOYEE USED A FORK LIFT TRUCK TO POSITION THE BOX AT A 45-DEGREE ANGLE TO THE FLOOR. THE BOX WAS RESTING ON A FLEXIBLE CORD USED TO SUPPLY POWER TO A SURFACE WINDING MACHINE AND TORE THE INSULATION ON THE CORD. THE 0.5-INCH-BY-0.25-INCH TEAR EXPOSED THE CONDUCTORS, WHICH ENERGIZED THE METAL FRAME OF THE BOX. THE EMPLOYEE WAS ELECTROCUTED WHEN HE CONTACTED THIS FRAME.
