I wire house electric outlets, switches, light fixtures and junctions without turning the power off.
It's good concentration and control practice.

Hopefully it was a hard hat with face shield, and a high viz shirt!
And I am certainly with total and unadulterated stupidity like that, it won't be the last, either.

If it was inside. It sounds like it was illegal. If it was outside, it still sounds like it was illegal.

Man I WISH I could afford a house with an indoor pond
And having grown up in the Netherlands where every socket runs 220 minimum, I don't even bother turning the power of when working on 110

Bet they don't sell plug protectors there. I don't imagine too many kids shove knives in sockets over there!
