Investigation Summary
On March 10, 2009, Employee #1 was deenergizing and locking out cooling tower equipment. Employee #1 would deenergize the various electrical panel boxes, and two of his coworkers followed him to apply the lock-out devices. At the time of the accident, Employee #1 was going to pull down a knife edge handle to deenergize a cooling tower pump. The source of electricity to the panel was 2,400 volts circuit. The knife edge handle was stuck and would not easily pull down. So, Employee #1 opened the face of the panel attempting to fix the stuck handle. Employee #1 came into contact with the energized equipment and was electrocuted.
