Shift changes occurred at 8:00 am and 8:00 pm. At approximately 8:30 pm on January 18, 2001, a wet hog, which was located in a wood room, dropped off line and would not operate. The wet hog was used to grind tree bark and wood residue into a wet fuel used in wet-fuel burners in the plant. The wet hog was not essential to the operation of the plant, and whether or not it was operating had no effect on other operations in the plant. An electrician was assigned to repair the hog. At approximately 10:30 pm, he entered the motor control room and opened a 2300-volt motor circuit breaker. He caused an electrical fault in the circuit breaker, apparently by contacting energized parts inside the circuit breaker cubicle, and…arrow_forwardGive me three options on how to spend less time sitting in traffic.

(WSSI), has provided you with a proposal forimproving the temperature control on your present machine.The machine uses a hot-air knife to cleanly remove excess solder from printed circuit boards; this is a great concept, butthe hot-air temperature control lacks reliability. According toWing, engineers at WSSI have improved the reliability of thecritical temperature controls. The new system still has the foursensitive integrated circuits controlling the temperature, butthe new machine has a backup for each. The four integratedcircuits have reliabilities of .90, .92, .94, and .96.
