Seem to remember that was the
Emma Shaw case where the cable looped and was hit by the plasterer, which caused the metal studding to become live, and the plumber forgot to glue the tun dish and the water ejected from the hot water system wet the floor and connected floor to live, so when Emma touched the stop cock she got a lethal shock.
It should have been highlighted before that point, however the semi skilled guy testing when he got an odd result fudged up some readings in the mess hut, so the foreman was unaware anything was wrong, so never even visited the site.
The foreman was found guilty, seems he should not have used semi skilled labour to do the testing.
It was to me a surprising result. It does point out how vital inspection and testing is, and it points to finding a house holder guilty of manslaughter if he fails to have the inspection done at recommended times.
In real terms it could not happen today, the RCD would trip first, but there were 5 separate people all made errors to cause the death. And the guy who allowed slack cable to drupe into path of plasterers fixing was not the guy found guilty.
