chris, maybe i came off wrong! but i am sure there was a better way in isolating that substation without exposing you and your crew to our danger! rather have a few people out of power then have a life lost over an unsafe act!
chris, thank you for your service!

DUMB DUMB DUMB 1. you have standing water between you and the ground grid! what happen to FE'S dielectric shoe rule for switching? 2. you have to be clear of the breaker because it could explode! dispatch asks on every order ... all personal and equipment in the clear? 3. opening switches as your standing under them... JUST DUMB! INSULATORS THAT WEIGHT 100lbs OR MORE DO BREAK!
to much focus on the video camera and making stupid comments that the real danger of what you were doing was lost!

@hntrscot The power to the entire community of Middletown was shut down before we entered. Our task was to get all breakers/switches off so power could be diverted to another substation. Middletown was then able to have critical power. My humor helps me relieve stress...I can see why you could take it the wrong way. We put our trust in the electrical workers and they in us (rescue boat crew). I learn from every experience. Thank you for your comments and be safe! Chris
