One thing to consider when working alone is not the advantage of another person helping you work safely. In my opinion thats hog wash; 99% of the unsafe acts I have seen in my career were right in front of supervisors and co-workers! With that said i do feel that when working with electricity it should be a two man job; after all who is going to start CPR on you if you are electrocuted. Having two people there, withone of them out of harms way, is a good idea in case there is an accident, not to prevent one. I wish more people would speak up when they see things unsafe, but right now, too many heads just turn and walk away.
