Investigation Summary
On June 21, 2012, the owner of Beco Electric Co., an electrical contracting company, was working on an 8 foot ladder at a commercial building site. The ladder was adjacent to and above an open electrical panel. For unknown reasons, a series of 480V 2KAMP breakers shorted and exploded. The blast caused the owner to fall onto the concrete floor. He was hospitalized with a head concussion and possible blunt force trauma to the spleen. Cal/OSHA closed this case due to lack of jurisdiction.
