TEST AND GROUND If it ain't grounded, it ain't dead. This guy never would have made a lineman.

Amen to that. I regularly work on transmitter equipment that runs with several thousand volts capable of a few amps.

I never touch a line until I have grounded it totally and completely - even (especially) when the power is "off".

A guy that I know was not quite as careful...



It is really amazing what a few angry electrons can do when they set their mind to it...

You think that’s uglt? You should see the safety videos we have to watch at the beginning of every new 345Kv project we start, and we do nothing with the electrical end of it, just the civil construction part.
