testing live current

[Kay]

Can I put 120 volt hot wire and a netural on my tongue and test it to see if it is still hot? I do it for nine volt batteries.

use a neon screwdriver, only a few pennies will save your day

You might die, particularly if you touch the hot wire first.

Or you might just suffer severe burns.

Of course. You'll know right away if it's hot.

The news said that at the US
there was a huge power black-out.

PS. For legal disclaimer reasons - don't bloody do it, it is
the stupidest thing I've seen here in months. Unless you're
just trying to rile us up!
