Don, Could you explain to me what is wrong with Electricians using Cover-up Gear?. I'm an Electrician and I use it most days that I work.
The problem is that the OSHA rules prohibit most types of live work. When the rules permit live work, then yes electricans must use PPE suitable for that hazard. Other than troubleshooting, there is no live work that would be permitted by OSHA in a dwelling unit. Don
