Tiebreakers, double throw disconnect switches, automatic transfer switches and emergency generators can supply power through an alternate circuit or from another source. • 120V current can be just a lethal as higher voltages because current flow through a body depends upon the body's resistance. • Do not trust insulation and/or weatherproofing on a wire as protection from shock.
I-210+ NIC and Meter Labeling Product Requirements 4. FCC and Government Guidelines • Only use ladders made of non-metallic, non-conductive material. They should be the proper size and type for the work intended. Inspect ladders for wear and breakage. Remove any oil, grease, or other slippery materials. • Do not set the ladder at too steep or too shallow of an angle. A rule of thumb is to stand erect with your toes against the bottom rails of the ladder, with your arms extended straight out.
