Investigation Summary
At approximately 10:30 a.m. on July 19, 2011, Employee #1 was working on a residential construction project. Employee #1 was using a Porter Cable reciprocating saw to remove water lines in the crawl space of the residence. The reciprocating saw, extension cord and portable GFCI that were being used were in good working condition, but the electrical conductors in the crawl space showed signs of degradation and damage from animals, and the grounding system for the house was not continuous. Employee #1 made contact with a frayed 120 volt electrical conductor and was electrocuted.
