Investigation Summary
At approximately 9:30 a.m. on February 4, 2007, Employee #1 was helping to run electric wires from a master disconnect box when he contacted the main electrical feed busbar. He was knocked unconscious and suffered electrical burns to his right hand. Coworkers provided CPR until Emergency Services arrived. Employee #1 was transported by Life Flight to a hospital in Wichita, KS, for treatment. Subsequent investigation found that the access panel near the top of the 4,160-volt main disconnect had been removed and had not been put back in place. In addition, Employee #1 was not wearing personal protective equipment nor had the equipment been de-energized.
