Narrative

During a man trip on the 14' hoist the service power tripped. The battery back-up that keeps power to the program to operate the 14' hoist failed. The program has to be re-installed at this point. The electrical superintendent was called to the mine and reprogrammed the hoist and installed a new battery back-up. The men were hoisted to surface in an egress mode of 30' per minute.
