Still hot, look at the definitions of Live Parts in OSHA or NFPA 70E.
The bucket itself is not de-energized in terms of working within the bucket on a power monitor, fuses, etc. The equipment that it's feeding would be de-energized, but note that under current 70E rules you have to open up the downstream equipment and verify that it's dead with a meter. Try-lock-try doesn't work anymore.
