“Open main breaker”

Some homeowners might not understand that even with the Main open that there’s still a huge hazard ahead of the main - up to a 10,000 amp fault from the utility transformer.

Even with the breaker off there’s lethal voltage present inside.

My bad. I read Open as in opening the panel to access the screws, not open as in shutting off. Sorry.
