Re: Risk of not using a 90 amp starter solanoid fuse

Since I am being Safety Sam here: If you are ever working on a live circuit (or one that MAY be live) keep one hand in your pocket, so that if you do touch a live wire the current will go down through your feet (and knock you on your butt) rather than across your chest to the other arm (and KILL you).

Now, if you really want some fun... Don't try this at home!!! Was troubleshooting a 3-ph pump not working one night... (Years ago on the back deck of a workboat in the Philippines)... was probing around, with my finger :facepalm: and found that there was 440vac where there shouldn't have been... I think I was buzzing for a couple of hours after that one... :eek:
