Well gents,I've made a living for 35 years working with electricity and have been in close proximity with everything from 125vac to over hundreds of thousands,and the one thing I'm sure of,it will get you when you least expect it,you can never be too safe or too cautious whether you're only plugging in a toaster or working on a live 7,200vac line in a driving rainstorm....we have safety meetings here at the electric utility until you're sick of them,and then something bad happens,and you want to pay attention to everything. :shock:
I have a very healthy respect for it,both DC or AC.
I usually pay no attention to the phrase "never say never"...unless it's dealing with electricity...stay safe guys! :D

Been thru many of such meeting since first year of apprenticeship 1976. One thing about Rigging work when you are on a transmission tower hundreds of feet off the ground or more no one is coming to help you very fast!
