Narrative

An employee was attempting to move the test set power cable from a disconnect/receptacle to the service on the wall. After turning off the power supply, the employee unplugged the cable to plug it into the wall outlet. The employee inadvertently touched the cable capacitor, which still contained some residual voltage after it was unplugged from the test set, and was shocked on his left hand.
