I think Don was OK in asking for some 'documentation' that isentified a 'hot stick' as PPE.
It may not have been clear in my posting of the DOE rules, but "hot stick" is one of the types of PPE listed on their chart, along with gloves, etc.
And Mike, you are quite right- most folks have absolutely no ide of the dozens of tools made to be attached to a hot-stick. Hot-sticks are completely useless without some sort of tool attached to the tip; most of us non-PoCo types have only seen the "finger" attachment, and may not realise that there are other tips as well!
