Interesting. I had assumed electrical work would be closer to guns, where you pretty much assume the worst at all times.

- quickthrowman 3y agoJust like with guns, you assume a circuit is energized until you prove it isn’t; similar to how you assume a gun is loaded until you prove it isn’t. If you’re certain a circuit is de-energized and you lock out the breaker or disconnecting means with a LOTO kit, it’s as safe as you can reasonably assume it to be, someone would need to cut off a lock with bolt cutters and turn the breaker or switch back on for the circuit to become re-energized.
