Investigation Summary
An employee was working at a welding machine testing station, testing welding machines by temporarily energizing them. He performed the tests at three different voltages, 230, 440, and 575 volts. A board on one side of the tester had exposed parts that were energized while the test was in operation. The employee was electrocuted when he contacted the parts while he was performing a test.
