Investigation Summary

Investigation Nr: 201350584

Event: 10/05/1998

electric shock - direct contact with energized parts

A plumber had completed installing copper water lines to a hot water heater in a mechanical room. He was electrocuted as he squeezed between the hot water heater and an air conditioning unit. The hot water heater and the air conditioning unit were located directly across from each other, approximately 275 millimeters apart. Apparently, he had dislodged the cover to the hot water heater and contacted energized terminals.
