Investigation Summary
On March 9, 2009, Employee #1 was servicing a water pump. After servicing the pump, he was unable to restart the pump and contacted his supervisor. The supervisor caught up with the employee at the pump's electrical control panel. Employee #1 had thrown the electrical disconnect and opened the panel cover. He checked inside the panel and saw no obvious faults such as blown fuses and decided to check the voltage with a voltmeter. With the panel cover still open, Employee #1 reenergized the circuitry. With the supervisor holding the voltmeter, Employee #1 took the leads and attempted to check the voltage when an arc flash occurred. Employee #1 sustained second and third degree burns on hands and was hospitalized. The employee was not wearing gloves.
