Investigation Summary
A contractor was working in a substation for an electric utility. A laborer and alternate foreman working for the contractor was connecting a new grounding system to an existing grounding system. As he was disconnecting an existing grounding cable to get slack for the connection, he was electrocuted. (The original form did not indicate whether the employee contacted energized parts of a circuit or the grounding cable was energized by ground fault current.)
