Investigation Summary
An equipment operator was using a front-end loader to load wood chips into a hopper. The hopper fed a wood chip separator. The machine jammed, so the employee got off his loader to free it. He turned off the wood separator and hopper and then grabbed a 240-volt cable that was still energized. He was electrocuted. The cable had been damaged by rubbing against a conveyor belt. A portable generator supplied power to the equipment.
