Narrative

EE was installing an air slide in the Packing House. He passed from the stair to the vibrator's structure to reach the chain of the hoist. The vibrator's structure was energized due to a broken ground wire located inside a metal enclosure. EE received an electrical shock when he touched part of the metal structure. The ground was fixed but few wires were broken
