[RE-wrenches] Fire fighters

[Darryl Thayer]

Hello the answer is yes.  On a job  several years ago to finish I worked
after dark.  It was a full moon, and a street light was nearby I got bit
from a 500 Voc module string.  I am sure I did not have 500 V but it only
takes 20 ma. To be deadly. I did not get my volt ohm meter out but I should
have.
