Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 002B Hazard:
29 CFR 1910.305(g)(1)(iv)(A): Unless specifically permitted otherwise in paragraph (g)(1)(ii) of this section, flexible cords and cables may not be used as a substitute for the fixed wiring of a structure. On or about May 10, 2022, at an establishment located at 1102 Jefferson Street in Algoma, Wisconsin; the employer used a flexible cord as a substitute for the fixed wiring used to provide power to a switch and outlet hanging on the side of the 30-inch Rewinder in the Finishing Department. The flexible cord was hardwired into the switch and plugged into a Tripp-Lite SmartPro 120V Line-Interactive Uninterrupted Power Source (UPS). The outlet was providing power to a fan that blows trim waste from the Rewinder.
