there you go..."current" information from someone who is certified. Sounds like a good source.sqwkvfr said:What kind of electricity? Auto/industrial wiring, power lines, houses, etc.? My stepdad works for the DoE and I've picked up a few things from him....otherwise I could just direct your Qs to him.
Here's a few right off the top of my head:
-Never wear rings, watches, or any other metal jewelry.
-Wear cotton clothing (in case of a burn, it won't melt to your skin)
-Never depend on another person to cut the electricity to whatever you're repairing or modifying....check and check again.
He actually works on crews that maintain lines while they're still hot, so -as you can imagine- safety is jobs 1-10. I'd be happy to ask him for ya.
My dad's neighbor is a welder on a DOD project...one of those accelerator race track thingies...those guys have to know their stuff.
