Hi all,
Just wanted to see people's thoughts on this.
Had an "experienced" Electrician start at my place of work on agency (mainly electrical maintenance)
He claims that he has worked all over the country and done so much.
However, he doesn't use insulated screwdrivers and his argument is that no
one should be working live so they are not needed. He is adamant that he won't use them.
Well, there are some circumstances where you have no choice but to work on a live board (obviously taking the correct precautions). Also he would not be complying with GS38. I have never known another sparky not to use insulated tools.
Any thoughts?
