At 11:30 a. m. on July 29, 2017, Employee #1, a non-licensed contractor, was attempting to install a breaker switch to a 480-Volt electrical subpanel located at the North side of the shipping area. The electrical panel was not de-energized, and a non-insulated screwdriver was used to perform the task.

The employee was working alone and there were no witnesses to the incident. Employee #1 was hospitalized for his injuries.
