hi there, our tutor is a bit of a pratt! he is confusing us asto weather it is safe
to remove the fuse box cover to do our inital inspection before testing. He keeps saying "is there ANY chance of electric shock when removing the cover?" as i have not inspected that all the conductors are safely connected etc i have to answer yes, there is a chance...so he says that i can not continue as it would not be safe to do so....but unless i take off the cover and inspect the conections (with the main isolator off) how can i confirm that it is safe ...to remove the cover if you see what i mean? :|
could you tell me the correct order i need to do assuming that this is a brand new instalation, im guessing that that means when i come to it the main isolator will be in the off position. does this mean i can lock it off, then take off the cover then test the out going tails from the main isolator to confirm that the unit is dead, then start to inspect it?
