You do not need insulated tools, I am a fourth year apprentice, and never work on live circuits. I am also a do it yourself handyman and you will never see above 480 volts. Really you will only see 120 volts. Insulated tool give you the false sense of protection. Never try to fix something hot. Its not worth it.
