Investigation Summary
Three employees of an electrical contractor were energizing newly installed 480-volt distribution switchgear. As the lever of the disconnect switchgear was closed, an electrical fault occurred inside a circuit breaker cabinet. The ensuing electric arc burned one employee's right lower leg. He was hospitalized for his injuries and required skin graft surgery to treat his burns. He had worked for 6 months as an electrical supervisor for his employer.
