Investigation Summary

Investigation Nr: 171061294

Event: 08/07/2001

Fall - Electrical Fault in Ceiling Lighting Fixture

Employee #1 was standing on stilts about 1.2 meters high, installing aluminum T-grids to support acoustical tiles and lighting fixtures in a room. He was near a light fixture and was about to install a short T-grid bracing. The electrician had shunted an energized 277-volt emergency circuit to the deenergized lighting circuit. The energized wire contacted the T-grid, and the electrical fault caused a large electric arc, making Employee #1 fall backward to the floor. He sustained bruises, contusions, and abrasions, but he was not hospitalized.
