Investigation Summary
At 3:00 a.m. on October 11, 2020, an employee working for a plastics product manufacturer was feeding cable into a molding machine. A portion of the ceramic-like cover over the heating element inside the oven fell down exposing the heating coil. The steel sheath over the cable became energized inside the machine. As a result, the employee received an electrical shock to her right hand and was hospitalized.
