A painter working for a painting contractor was near the runway conductors for a 4.5-metric-ton crane. The runway conductors had been deenergized, and the facility owner and the painting contractor had applied lockout devices to the energy isolating devices for the circuit. However, someone removed the lockout devices and reenergized the circuit. The painter contacted the runway conductors and received an electric shock. He was hospitalized with second- and third-degree electrical burns to his right thumb and hand. | |||||||
