Investigation Summary
A concrete pump tower had a problem with its plug. Some employees of the concrete contractor working onsite were trying to effect a repair. They verified that the circuit was deenergized using an electrical tester but were apparently unsuccessful in their attempt at repair. When another employee of the concrete contractor came to help, he did not retest before starting to work on the plug. The circuit was energized at the time, and this employee was electrocuted.
