Titus,

I have mentioned it before but..

Watched my boss on ship reach into an equipment rack that was supplied 120 2 phase and 440 three phase. He wanted to change a fuse for the 120. We(the other techs) said he should switch off the 440. He laughed joking about us youngins and not being aroudn the equipmant as long.. as he said this he reached in the cabinet and shorted himself across a 3" diameter fuse. He was thrown 6 fet into a bulkhead(wall for you landlubbers).

Moral of the story..

Don't mess with electricity. It will really mess with you.
