Narrative

The 1700 Sump electrical station went down due to moisture on the contacts that was a result of a previous power outage that occurred off site. To re-energize the 1700 sump electrical station, the hoist was intentially shut down to allow the electrical system to load share so as not to overload the system. There was no damage to the hoist.
