John,

Yes, I am qualified to do what I did, working with 208VAC, 460VAC in the plant all the time (mostly motor controls) . I have an AOS degree as an Electromechanical Systems Mechanic. Though, not a licensed electrician. Of course there was danger there, and there could have been an incident, but knowing the dangers, I believed what I did was right.

Thanks for the reply.

I know the sparkys as friends, and will talk to them as soon as I see them next.
