The spark in question ended up getting a wrist slapping. I personally think he was lucky. To defeat the local isolator on a machine that is automatically controlled and filling out a report on the work saying that its 'fixed', IMO is lack of awareness of potential increase of hazards.
Like has been said, his failure to communicate properly could have led to a much more severe result. Although you can't predict the actions of other tradesmen (in this case the fitter), all reasonable precautions should be taken to prevent an increases to hazards to persons, livestock and property...I'm sure I've read that somewhere...
