Investigation Summary
A 31- year-old lead carpenter was building an addition to a large single family house. He was electrocuted when he picked up a Milwaukee saw with a 184-millimeter-diameter (7.25-inch-diameter) blade. The saw was equipped with a grounding-type attachment plug. All saws, tools, and extension cord sets had continuous equipment grounding conductors; however, the permanent receptacle provided at the existing private residence deck was miswired. The grounding terminal of the receptacle was energized at 120 volts through a 30-ampere fuse.
