I was shown the transmitter, the circuit breakers, the warning
stickers, the dead man's bars, the shorting sticks, etc. and expected to
carry
on with due respect for my own health and safety.
Health and safety are good things but being treated like I am intelligent
and
competent are also desirable activities.
Absolutely. I learnt the SIDE rule - Switch off (duur...), Isolate (from
incoming power), Dump (residual charge) and Earth (with a stick). It isn't
rocket science - most people have only to be shown how to do it once, and
then left to get on with it.
