Conductors were not run as multiconductor cord or cable assemblies or open conductors or were not run in raceways. All conductors were not protected by overcurrent devices at their ampacity. Runs of open conductors were not located where the conductors will not be subject to physical damage, and the conductors were not fastened at intervals not exceeding 10 feet (3.05 m). Branch-circuit conductors were laid on the floor. Each branch circuit that supplies receptacles or fixed equipment did not contain a separate equipment grounding conductor when the branch circuit were run as open conductors. a) On or about April 4, 2024, at the above addressed jobsite, an SO cable providing 480-volt 30-amp 3-phase power to electrical equipment was laid on the floor, thereby exposing employees to electrical hazards.
