Re: shocking question..........

The discussion had been about a power company guy installing a meter while an electrician was working in the panel.

This will do it for LOTO.

Rattus,

I hadn't considered what would happen if you put a grounded metal box around conductors underwater.

I think the same thing is supposed to work for RF in air but my experience disagrees.

It's an interesting question.

physis,

RF wavelengths are so short that the MEs and EEs collaborate on the enclosures. Various sorts of springy fingers and copper wool are used to seal the RF signals inside the box--something like weatherstripping on a door.
