Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 013 Hazard:
29 CFR 1910.303(g)(2)(i): Live parts of electric equipment operating at 50 volts or more were not guarded against accidental contact by approved cabinets or other forms of approved enclosures, or other means listed under this provision: On or about October 28, 2021, the employer did not ensure live electrical parts were guarded. This condition exposed employees to death or 2nd and 3rd degree burns from electrical shock in the following instances: 1) In the Backhouse elevator/loader area, a 110v exposed live wire (red in color) was hanging out of the electrical box within 3 to 4 inches of the elevator switches. 2) In the Machine shop area, industrial live wires (green and white) coming out of the bottom of the 480v Lathe CNC disconnect box were not guarded. The 480v panel box next to the Lathe CNC disconnect box was missing a conduit cover and thus exposing 480v live wires. 3) In the High Voltage room, the ABB circuit breaker high voltage panel door was left open with live conductors (480v) exposed.
