for many years i kept a 5/16 allen wrench in my tool box
a souvenir from a job i was on where the lead man on the construction job shorted out a panel and blew 400 amp fuses on the 'POLE'
that wrench had the end melted off and copper imbedded into the the steel
NO phones, I loaded him into the van and drove him to the closest hospital
he was lucky to get off with 3rd degree burns
I Don't want a high voltage solar system
in fact there was a news story this week ( over shadowed by the Gov shut down )
about several city fire departments are now refusing to get on the roofs of buildings because of large solar installs
the panels and system are still HV hot after utility power is turned off, plus the room for moving around and venting the building are greatly reduced
on a slanted roof it is very dangerous for the fireman, unable to gain any footing
some towns are now seeking 'Fire' regulation of solar installations
some will not even enter a building with a large HV array on the roof, because some danger from falling wires from the HV solar
