Investigation Summary
Three maintenance workers were testing a Cooper VWE electronically-controlled, oil-insulated, three-phase recloser (substation switching unit) with test equipment. They were also going to test a high-potential unit. Employee #1 climbed the frame of the high-potential unit to connect leads that would then be connected to the tester. The unit was still energized. He contacted an energized 7.2-kilovolt circuit and received an electric shock and burns. He was hospitalized. The firm's owner, Employee #2, also received burns on and around his eyes, but he was not hospitalized. The third worker sustained no reported injuries.
