It was found on October 12, 2012, the employer designed, produced, and installed unapproved equipment. A device called the Smart Box 3 was not approved by a Nationally Recognized Testing Laboratory and was not tested and examined for workplace safety, nor was the Smart Box 3 determined to be safe on the basis of test data. Subsequently, the completed device design did not account for a reverse polarity wiring occurring when the Smart Box 3 casing was created.
