Narrative

The 3rd shaft hoist went down due to a blown fuse in the control circuit for the PT. Heat in the room combined with the tight tolerance of the PT fuses was the root cause. The fuse was repaired and the AC unit is also being repaired to prevent reoccurrence. The hoist was back up at approximately at 10:30 P.M. MSHA was notified within time.
