I've been "bit" once. Used a shorting probe to discharge everything....( except the plate cap for the transmitter final power amp )....Familiarity breeds contempt.
14,000 Volts DC, from a pulse forming network of a search Radar unit. Fortunately, when all was "said ( actually I didn't say anything ) and done"......I still had a "pulse".
Never stop "worrying".
We always learn far more from our own mistakes, than we will ever learn from another's advice.
The greatest place to live life, is on the sharp leading edge of a learning curve.
Lead me not into temptation.....I can find it myself!
