How many of you folks work in and around live panels?.
I've heard of a lot of people that have had accidents when using tools (Drills and the like) inside a live panel.
Now, here is an idea for you guys to think about.
Us Lineys HAVE to use cover up gear whenever we are working live, it's like hanging laundry out on a line, but disregarding the fact that we all wear Gloves, Outers and arm sleeves, you guys should be using a blanket, to shield all of your live parts when working around live bits.
Grainger sells them, and please don't misconstrue this as an ad for them.
You can have a safe zone inside a panel by placing one of these Neoprene blankets inside where you are working.
This isn't a Line Mechanic being smart to you EC's, this makes bloody good sense, ever dropped a tool into a set of busbars?.
